Author Notes: To me this is a perfect breakfast bread: it's moist and flavorful, a bit sweet but only just, and with the whole grains, pears and honey you can still feel like you are starting the day out right).

Makes 1 loaf

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup neutral oil
1/2 cup +2 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 egg
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pear, peeled and cut into a 1/2 inch dice

Preheat the oven to 325. Butter a 9 inch loaf pan and line the base with parchment paper.
Stir the dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients together in a large bowl and add the dry ingredient mixture in 2 additions, stirring until just barely combined. Fold in the diced pear
Scrape into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Tent with foil if it starts to brown too quickly (honey-sweetened dishes tend to do this).
Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, and then finish cooling on a rack.
