Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
Mix all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons mixture and toss with raspberries in a separate bowl. Stir together pear, brown sugar, eggs, oil and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Add flour mixture to pear mixture, mixing just until combined. Gently fold in raspberries and pecans until evenly blended. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake about 1 hour 15 minutes, or until browned and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 20 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
