In a small bowl, beat the eggs until foamy; then stir in the vanilla. Gently fold this mixture into the nut mixture and mix well. Pour the batter into a greased and parchment paper-lined 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Bake at 300°F for 1-3/4 hours or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once done, allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before removing it from the pan to a wire rack.
