INGREDIENTS:
  • 425g canned pears halves in juice
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 2 eggs, lightly whisked
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 cup wholemeal self-raising flour
  • 1 cup self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp groud cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup quick rolled oats
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
METHOD:
  • Pre-heat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced) and line a 8cm x 22cm loaf pan with baking paper.
  • Pour the canned pears into a large mixing bowl, including the juice. Using a fork, lightly mash the pears into smaller pieces, to form a chunky consistency. Add in the oil, eggs and honey. Mix to combine.
  • Sift in the two flours and cinnamon. Add the quick oats and mix to combine.
  • Fold in the raspberries and pour into the lined baking tin.
  • Place in oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  • Set aside in pan for 10 minutes to cool. Turn onto a wire rack and cut into 8 slices with a serrated knife, then cut each slice in half, making 16 pieces in total.
RECIPE NOTES:
  • Feel free to substitute the raspberries for fresh or frozen blueberries, strawberries or one diced apple.
  • Leftover slices can be frozen or stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
