This Pear Cake with Cinnamon Sugar is a delicious and super easy cake made with fresh pears and a simple batter. I love when there are ripe pears in the grocery store as I know it’s time to make this cake.
To make this cake, start by preparing the simple batter in the bowl of a food processor. Peel, core and slice the pears and make cinnamon sugar. Transfer the batter to a baking pan and arrange the pears on top of the batter. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake in the oven. Serve warm with freshly whipped cream or custard.
To make Pear Cake with Cinnamon Sugar, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 °F and place a shelf in the middle of it. Lightly grease a 9-inch baking pan and line with a round piece of baking parchment paper, dust with flour. Tap out any excess flour.
Place 1 cup all-purpose flour, ¼ cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder and ⅛ teaspoon of salt in a food processor. Pulse until blended.
Add ¼ cup of butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Lightly beat ¼ cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla with a fork until fully combined. Add the milk mixture to the bowl of the food processor. Process until a smooth batter forms.
Transfer the cake batter to the prepared baking pan. Smooth the batter using the back of a spoon.
Cut the pears in half. Remove the cores and the stem ends. Slice the pear halves into ¼-inch thick slices.
Mix 3 tablespoons of sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until combined.
Arrange the pears on the batter in a circular pattern. Make sure the slices overlap slightly and cover the batter. Sprinkle the top of the cake with the cinnamon sugar.
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the edges are golden brown.
Let the cake cool in the baking pan for around 10 minutes before removing from the pan.
Serve warm slices of this cake with freshly whipped cream.
