Preheat oven to 350
Grease a loaf pan (or mini loaf pan!). I like to use coconut oil to grease my pans.
In large bowl with mixer, cream together the flax egg, sugar, and vanilla until combined.
Add butter and beat until smooth. Add vegan buttermilk and beat until just combined.
In separate bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Slowly add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined (don’t overmix), mix in pears. Pour into prepared pans so that pan is about 2/3rds full.
To make crumb topping, combine all ingredients and use your hands to crumble on top of bread batter.
Bake 45-50 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Bake 25-30 minutes for mini loaves.
