1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 teaspoons orange zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
3/4 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts)

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F Drain pear halves, reserving two for garnish and reserve the juice. Finely chop remaining pear halves.
2
Combine brown sugar, honey, oil, pear syrup, eggs, and zests. Stir in chopped pears and nuts.
3
Sift remaining ingredients (flour gets sifted twice I suppose) and add to pear mixture, stirring until just blended. Pour into greased loaf pans.

Slice reserved pears and arrange on top of batter. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
5
Remove from oven, invert to cooling racks and cool. For best flavor let stand overnight. Store wrapped in foil.
