How to Make Irresistible Super Moist Decadent Pear Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round cake pan.
  2. Peel, core, and chop your fresh pears into bite-sized pieces, tossing them with a splash of lemon juice.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together your sifted flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  4. In another bowl, beat the softened butter with sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Incorporate the eggs into the butter-sugar mixture one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, then fold in the chopped pear pieces.
  7. Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, checking for doneness.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
