Ingredients
- Melted butter, to grease
- 150 g butter, at room temperature (I used approximately 3/4 cup)
- Note: 150 g = 5.29109 oz.
- 270 g (1-1/4 cups) caster sugar (I used granulated sugar)
- 2 eggs
- 225 g (1-1/2 cups) plain flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) pear juice
- 3 (about 450g) Peckham pears, peeled, cored, coarsely chopped
- 55g (1/2 cup) walnut halves, coarsely chopped
- 65g (1/3 cup) sultanas
- 2 tsp. mixed spice (I used 1/2 tsp. nutmeg and 1 tsp. cinnamon)
- 2 Tbsp. honey
- Extra honey to serve
- Creme fraiche, to serve
Directions
- Preheat oven to 170°C.
- Brush a round 20cm (base measurement) cake pan with melted butter to lightly grease.
- Line the base and side with non-stick baking paper.
- Use an electric beater to beat together the butter and sugar in a medium bowl until pale and creamy.
- Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition until just combined.
- Sift together the flour and baking powder over the butter mixture and gently fold until just combined.
- Add the pear juice and fold to combine.
- Add the pear, walnut, sultanas and mixed spice and stir to combine.
- Spoon the cake mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface.
- Bake in oven for 1-1/4 hours or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Brush the cake with honey.
- Set aside in the pan for 10 minutes to cool slightly before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cut into wedges and place on serving plates.
- Drizzle with extra honey and serve with creme fraiche, if desired.
- Serves 8
