Due to a grocery delivery cockup, I recently had an overabundance of pears. And rather than die like some Medieval monarch from a surfeit of fruit, I decided to bake a cake. The recipe I used was from BBC’s Good Food and it was perfection. So light and eggy. It tasted like a crêpe but almost in the form of a custard. I served it with Greek yogurt and toasted almonds which balanced the sweetness of the pears beautifully. I recommend it.
A surfeit of pears. Lucky you!
Seriously. It was like a mitzvah! A delivery cockup I’ll happily take any day.
This looks delicious! Like a taste of spring on a cold winter day 🙂
It’s quickly become a family favorite. And it’s so easy to make.
Beautiful!
Thanks!
oh that looks deliciously fruity and creamy and eggy! Yes, please 😀 Did you use the pear liqueur?
You know I didn’t. Surprisingly. We didn’t have any on hand. I did think about substituting it with calvados but didn’t. I don’t think it needs it.
This looks so delicious! I think I’ll have a go at it 🙂 Thanks for the tip
It’s so delicious! Highly addictive. And because it’s so light you don’t realize how much you’re eating. I hope you like it.
That looks amazing. Beautiful dishes, too.
Thanks! I’m fond of those dessert plates too. They used to belong to my husband’s grandparents.
