Pear cake

Dear all,

I recently found myself facing a huge pile of ripe pears from the market - perfect for making a cake!

This cake had bits of pear mixed in as well as on top. For added texture I added ground hazelnuts.


For extra shine I brushed over some warm apricot jam. Never tried that before, works well!


The only thing not visible (there was no time for pictures while devouring this cake!) was the extra special surprise: dark chocolate chunks. Not many, but enough for a pleasant surprise while sampling this delicious pear cake. Worth making again!
