Indulge in a decadent fresh pear cake, bursting with flavor and loved by all. A party favorite that disappears quickly - also ideal for a delightful coffee cake option!
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar
  • 3.5 cups cake flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup butter, softened
  • 1.3333333730698 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1.25 cups sour cream
  • 3 medium pears, cored and finely chopped
  • 0.75 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 0.5 cup caramel ice cream topping
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch Bundt or tube pan generously with butter. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar into the pan and swirl to coat evenly. Discard any excess.
  • Combine cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whip up a luxurious mix of 3/4 cup of butter and white sugar until airy. Add in the eggs one by one, making sure to blend thoroughly. Gently mix in the vanilla and sour cream until just combined. Slowly fold in the flour mixture until fully mixed. Carefully incorporate the chopped pears with a rubber spatula.
  • Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and pecans in a bowl. Spread 1/3 of the batter in the pan, sprinkle with 1/3 of the pecan mixture. Repeat layering two more times, finishing with the pecan mixture on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes until the top of the cake springs back when lightly pressed or a knife inserted into the crown comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edge. Carefully invert onto a cooling rack. If needed, tap the pan with a knife to release the cake. Allow to cool completely before serving.
  • Once the cake has cooled, elegantly transfer it onto a serving plate with the assistance of two spatulas. Just before serving, generously drizzle it with the luscious caramel ice cream topping.
