PEAR BREAD



Pear Bread image

As Bosc pears ripen the texture is as soft as a ripe banana, so I got the idea of making my banana bread recipe with chunks of pear. I added a bit of homemade granola, instead of the toasted coconut I usually put in the banana bread. It is essentially the same recipe, but the result is completely and wonderfully different, with a sweet spice flavor. Note: The trick to this recipe is using the pears when they are very ripe. This means they are at their sweetest and will breakdown when baking.

Roasted Pears With Coconut Butterscotch Sauce image

Treat yourself this weekend with oven-roasted pears smothered in a thick, nearly candied butterscotch sauce.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     sauces and gravies, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 Bosc pears, peeled, cored and quartered lengthwise
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar
Fine sea salt
Black pepper
1/4 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut
2 cups coconut milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Dark chocolate squares, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. In a bowl, toss together the pears, butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, pinch salt and pepper. Roast on baking sheet, tossing occasionally, until pears are tender and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the coconut until golden.
  • In a separate skillet, combine 1 cup brown sugar and 6 tablespoons water. Cook over medium heat until sugar melts and loses its sandlike consistency (there can still be a few sugar granules). Whisk in the coconut milk and a pinch of salt. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until sauce reaches a consistency between that of heavy cream and butterscotch sauce; this could take 10 minutes or longer. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and lemon zest. Spoon sauce over pears and garnish with toasted coconut. Serve with the chocolate on the side.

ROASTED PEAR QUICK BREAD



Roasted Pear Quick Bread image

Roasted pears add juiciness and depth of flavor to this otherwise simple quick bread. You can peel the pears if you want, but they add a sturdiness to the roasted fruit and a nice texture to the finished loaf. The addition of streusel takes this bread over the top, but it is excellent without it, too, if you feel like skipping a step.

Provided by Erin Jeanne McDowell

Categories     cakes, quick breads, dessert

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 1/2 cups/355 grams chopped pears (from about 2 medium pears, cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of fine sea salt
1/4 cup/25 grams old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup/55 grams light brown sugar
1/4 cup/30 grams all-purpose flour
Pinch of ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1/3 cup/45 grams coarsely chopped almonds
2 1/2 cups/320 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup/120 milliliters vegetable, or other neutral, oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan
1 cup/220 grams light brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
3/4 cup/180 milliliters buttermilk

Steps:

  • Make the roasted pears: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. On a large baking sheet, toss the pears with the melted butter, vanilla and salt and spread in an even layer on the pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until pears are tender and beginning to brown at the edges, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature.
  • While the pears cool, make the streusel: In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon to combine. Add the cubes of cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the other ingredients until the mixture becomes clumpy. Stir in the almonds. Set aside.
  • Make the quick bread: Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan, and lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl and using an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the oil, butter and brown sugar until well combined, about 1 minute. Add the eggs one at a time and mix well to incorporate after each addition, scraping the bowl as necessary. Beat in the almond extract if using.
  • With the speed on low, gently add in half the flour mixture and mix until incorporated. Add the buttermilk in a slow, steady stream and mix to combine, then add the remainder of the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated. Add the cooled roasted pears and use a rubber spatula to gently fold them into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread in an even layer.
  • Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the loaf. Bake the quick bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the streusel is golden brown, 55 to 65 minutes. If the streusel is getting too dark before the interior is fully baked, tent with foil. Let cool for 20 minutes in the pan, then unmold onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

For crust
1 cup slivered blanched almonds (1/4 lb), toasted and cooled
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups fine fresh bread crumbs (from 6 to 7 slices firm white sandwich bread)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted for filling
1 fresh brown coconut (1 1/2 lb)
1 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup sugar
3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla (preferably Mexican)
For sauce
1 3/4 lb fresh red prickly pears (also called cactus pears; about 8)
3 tablespoons sugar, or to taste
1 to 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons orange liqueur such as Cointreau (optional)
1/2 cup crema (thick Mexican cream), crme frache, or sour cream thinned with 1 teaspoon milk
Special Equipment
6 (4-inch) fluted tart pans

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Line bottom of each tart pan with a round of parchment or wax paper.
  • Finely grind 1/3 cup almonds with sugar in a food processor (reserve remaining almonds for filling), then add bread crumbs and pulse until combined. Drizzle butter over crumbs and pulse until evenly moistened. Divide mixture among tart pans and press evenly over bottom and up side of each tart pan. Chill tart shells while making filling.
  • Make filling:
  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Pierce softest eye of coconut with a metal skewer or small screwdriver and drain liquid through a sieve into a bowl and reserve. (If it tastes sweet, the coconut is fresh; if it tastes off, the coconut is rancid and should be discarded.) Bake coconut 15 minutes, then cool until it can be handled.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
  • Break shell of coconut with a hammer or back of a heavy cleaver, then remove flesh with point of a strong knife, levering it out carefully. Remove brown skin with a sharp knife or vegetable peeler. Shred coconut in cleaned food processor fitted with medium-size shredding disk or hand-grate with medium-size teardrop holes of a box grater. Measure 2 1/2 cups loosely packed coconut and reserve. Transfer remaining coconut to a shallow baking pan and toast in oven, stirring occasionally, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack and reserve for garnish. Leave oven on.
  • While coconut toasts, bring reserved coconut liquid, cream, and sugar to a simmer in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, until reduced to about 1 cup, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl, then stir in reserved 2 1/2 cups untoasted coconut, yolks, vanilla, and reserved toasted almonds (2/3 cup) until combined well.
  • Put tart pans on a large baking sheet, then spoon coconut filling evenly into shells, stirring filling in between additions to get even amounts of solids and liquid and bake until filling is set and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool tarts on a rack.
  • Make sauce:
  • Wearing rubber gloves, cut a 1/2-inch slice off both ends of each pear, then make a 1/2-inch-deep incision with a paring knife down side of each pear. Peel off rind, starting from incision, and discard. Coarsely chop flesh, then purée in cleaned food processor. Force pur&eacut;e through a medium-mesh sieve into a bowl using a rubber spatula.
  • Bring 1 cup purée and 3 tablespoons sugar to a simmer in cleaned 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring, then simmer briskly, stirring frequently, until reduced to 1/2 cup, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer cooked purée to a bowl, then cool to room temperature and stir in uncooked purée. Season to taste with lime juice, additional sugar, and orange liqueur (if using).
  • Using tip of a paring knife, loosen edge of 1 tart crust from pan, then invert tart into your hand, removing pan, and transfer tart, right side up, to a serving plate, then repeat with remaining tarts. Serve tarts topped with dollops of crema and sprinkled with toasted coconut, then spoon sauce around tarts.
