Fresh Pear Bread

Somewhere one day many years ago I came across this recipe for pear bread.  It is absolutely delicious.  So I am sharing it with all of you.
Fresh Pear Bread
3 eggs                               2 tsp cinnamon
1-1/2 cups sugar               1 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup oil                        1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla                     4 cups (about 4 pears) finely chopped peeled pears
3 cups flour                      1 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp baking powder        1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

In mixing bowl, combine eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla.  Mix well.  Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.  Stir into egg mixture just until moistened.  Toss pears with lemon juice.  Stir pears and walnuts into batter.  Will be thick.  Spoon into two 9x5x3 greased loaf pans.  Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes.  Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire rack.
Enjoy! :-)
