Here’s another great way to use those pears! This grain free bread is soooo good and so good for you.

With the great benefits of pears which are high in antioxidants as well as anti-inflammatory benefits, intake of pears has now been associated with decreased risk of several common chronic diseases that begin with chronic inflammation and excessive oxidative stress.

These diseases include heart disease and type 2 diabetes according to the world’s healthiest foods.org. I also love the flavor of pears with pecans which add protein and have a long list of health benefits.

Pecans help with weight loss, heart health, digestion, skin health, blood pressure, bone and tooth health, strengthen the immune system and many more! This bread makes a great addition to your breakfast (or snack) table.
