A delightful twist on classic banana bread, incorporating the sweetness of pears for a moist and flavorful treat.
Mash the ripe bananas and pears together in a mixing bowl until mostly smooth, leaving a few small lumps for texture.
Using a fork or potato masher can help achieve the desired consistency quickly.
Add the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and egg to the fruit mixture and whisk until well combined.
Ensure the egg is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Mix in the baking soda, baking powder, and vanilla extract.
Sift the baking soda and powder to avoid clumps.
Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Overmixing can result in a dense bread, so mix until no dry flour is visible.
Grease a loaf pan and pour the batter in evenly, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Use parchment paper for easier removal of the bread after baking.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the bread at the 50-minute mark to prevent overbaking.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling the bread fully ensures it slices cleanly without crumbling.
