Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, shredded coconut, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the grated pears, eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and milk. Mix until well blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combinedβdo not overmix.
Carefully fold the raspberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed but not crushed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve slices of the Pear Raspberry Coconut Bread on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream.
