Applesauce is often used as a replacement for oil, but since this is a Pear
Bread recipe, you might try taking a can of pears in pear juice and pureeing them in the blender or food processor and replace some or all of the oil with that. I think I'd try 3/4 cup of the pear puree and 1/4 cup of the oil, but I'd be tempted for flavor to use 1/4 cup of butter instead of the oil. Since the canned pears are very sweet I think you could cut out some of the sugar, too. With 3/4 cup of pear puree, I'd cut the sugar down to 1 1/3 cup. Nuts are high point items, too, because of their fat content. Toasting them adds more flavor, so you could cut the quantity down if you toast them. I'd try 3/8 cup of toasted pecans. Speaking just for myself, I'd sub some of the white flour with whole wheat, too -- but I prefer whole wheat even ignoring the health benefits. HTH == Let us know how it comes out whatever you do.!

replace 1/2 cup of sugar with splenda
replace eggs with egg beaters cut nuts in half and instead of mixing them in crush them and sprinkle on pan before you pour in batter you could also probably cut the oil to 1/4 cup of a cup.

forgot about the apple sauce, you can also use canned pears and mash it up
instead of the apple sauce. I didn't say to substitute all of the sugar because it doesn't brown like you would like if you substitute it all, Lee Fred wrote in message ...
