Simple Pear Loaf
  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two 8x4-inch loaf pans.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, beat the sugar, oil, and eggs until well blended. Stir in the pears, pecans, and vanilla extract.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir this into the pear mixture until well combined, then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
