Roquefort, Pear and Walnut Bread

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a standard loaf pan and set aside. Peel, core and cube pears. Crumble blue cheese roughly. Set both aside.

2. In a large bowl, combine flour and baking powder.

3. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, oil, milk and salt for about 30 seconds with a hand mixer. Add mixture into the flour preparation, and stir just until all the ingredients are incorporated, not more. Add pears, cheese and walnuts.

4. Pour batter into the buttered pan. Put into the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and an inserted toothpick comes out with barely any crumbs. Serve warm or at room temperature.
