This is just the ticket to have with a cup of tea or coffee. Avril's Pear and Pecan fruit and nut loaf is just what it says - mainly fruit and nuts. Avril makes the cakes herself and has a number of equally delicious varieties.I've tried a slice of pear and pecan loaf with a hefty slice of runny brie and that definitely worked too.
It's no surprise this loaf was a gold medal winner at the 2007 Sydney Fine Food Show.
I was told the small loaf I bought will last for months, well wrapped in the fridge. Yeah, right, I can see that happening - only if I hide it right at the back and suffer memory loss!
I bought this at the Moggill Country Market but it's also available at other markets - check Avril's website.
