Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease an 8cm x 22cm (base measurement) loaf pan. Line with baking paper, allowing sides to overhang. Combine flour, combined sugar and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  2. Step 2

    Whisk the oil, egg and buttermilk in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture with the grated pear and raspberries and stir to combine. Spoon into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Arrange the pear slices over the top. Bake for 45-50 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Set aside for 5 mins before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, to make the whipped maple butter, use an electric mixer to beat the butter in a medium bowl until pale. Add the maple syrup and beat until well combined. Stir in half the honeycomb. Add the remaining honeycomb and gently fold to marble.
  4. Step 4

    Cut the loaf into slices. Serve warm or at room temperature with the maple butter
