Pear Crumb Cake

In jest, one might say this cake is quick to prepare and even quicker to disappear. A simple homemade dessert that requires little effort but is so delicious that its hard to stop at just one piece. It pairs wonderfully with a cup of warm beverage, and for an extra touch, you can serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or Greek yogurt.

Ingredients

  • 2 piece Egg, fresh

  • 250 ml Sour cream

  • 150 g Flour, Wheat, bread flour

  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder

  • 150 g Sugar, white

  • 200 g Semolina

  • 1 pinch Salt, table

  • 60 g Butter, unsalted

  • pieces Pear, fresh

  • pieces Juice, lemon

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius. In a small cup, melt the butter over low heat. Grease a rectangular baking dish, approximately 35 x 25 cm, with the melted butter, and optionally line it with baking paper.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the eggs and sour cream. Sift the flour, mixed with baking powder, sugar, breadcrumbs, and salt over the mixture. Stir the ingredients well with a hand whisk to form a medium-thick batter, then finally mix in the melted butter.

  3. Pour the batter into the baking dish and spread it evenly over the entire surface, smoothing the top nicely.

  4. Peel the pears, halve them, and remove the cores. Drizzle them with lemon juice, then cut each half into four pieces.

  5. Arrange the pear pieces randomly over the batter in the baking dish. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes. It is done when it rises nicely and turns a golden brown color.

  6. Allow the baked cake to cool partially before serving, then dust it with powdered sugar, cut into pieces, and serve.
