Ingredients for the Pear and Chocolate Cake
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs (at room temperature)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk (Warm)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 Abate pears
Tools
- 1 Bowl
- 1 Hand Whisk
- 1 Pan
Preparation of the Pear and Chocolate Cake
Inside a bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar using a hand whisk.
Incorporate the milk and vegetable oil.
Sift together the flour and baking powder and add them to the batter, mixing until a smooth and homogeneous mixture is obtained.Pour the batter into a pan lined with parchment paper (round, 9-10 inches or like mine 8×8 inches).
Peel the pears, slice them thinly, and arrange them on the surface. Add two tablespoons of hazelnut spread or chocolate shavings.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 40 minutes.
From the 35th minute, do the toothpick test in the center… if it comes out dry, the pear and chocolate cake is ready; otherwise, extend the baking by 5 minutes.Remove from the oven and let the cake cool completely inside the pan before removing and serving.
