- 2 cups granulated white sugar
- 1 cup vegetable or canola oil
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 to 2½ cups peeled and chopped ripe pears ((about 3 medium))
- 1 cup chopped pecans, (optional)
Steps
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray two 8x4-inch loaf pans with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, combine the sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla. Whisk together well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture; stir just until combined. Gently stir in the pears and the pecans (if using). Divide the batter between the prepared loaf pans.
Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a loaf comes out clean. Allow the loaves to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
