Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
5 ripe pears
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with shortening or cooking spray; light flour.
  • Peel, core and chop 2 of the pears; place in blender. Cover; puree until smooth. Measure 1/2 cup of the puree. Reserve remaining puree for another use.
  • In small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, salt and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
  • In large bowl, beat 1/2 cup pear puree, the oil and granulated sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Add eggs one at a time, scraping down sides of bowl between each addition. Beat in vanilla. Add flour mixture; beat just until combined.
  • Peel, core and chop remaining 3 pears. Fold chopped pears into cake batter. Pour into pan.

This cake is dense and moist, with a lovely crumb. The pear flavor is subtle, but it's there. The glaze is a nice touch, but it's not too sweet.
