Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a loaf tin with baking paper.
2.In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Add in the chopped pear and cheese, then toss. Lightly whisk the eggs with the yoghurt and pour this into the dry ingredients, folding to combine into a wet, scraggy dough.
3.Scrape into your loaf tin and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes, then turn out to cool completely.
4.Eat fresh on the day or it will keep well. It’s also quite scrumptious toasted.
