- Keep oven on and line a medium size loaf pan with baking paper.
- Gently combine the flour and cinnamon in a mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl combine pumpkin puree, mashed pears, vanilla extract, milk, oil and rice malt syrup.
- Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture and mix to just combine. (Note: add water if required).
