Hi all, recently retired and scouting out new recipes to try. I love pears in any baked goods.
So, naturally this recipe caught my eye. To me this recipe is special. (stands out in the crowd.)
Encouraged me to try my spanky new 10" springform pan. I followed recipe exactly. Here are
conversion measurements. 1 cup Butter, (I used I Can't Believe It's not Butter sticks.) 1 cup
sugar , 2 cups all purpose flour. Oven temperature of 350*. Demerara sugar, I mixed cinnamon & sugar, and sprinkled heavy on top. Baked it for one hour. I tapped the top & when it was solid, I took it out of oven. To me the ingredients are exactly right. I did use canned pears. Drained & patted dry with paper towels. I'm going to try canned peaches next. This is a delicate, not to sugary tasting coffeecake. I creamed the sugar and butter for a long time. Same with eggs when I added them in. I used half & half. Mixed half flour mixture & half cream. Then repeated. Easy on this mixing. You'll see you come out with a light creamy batter that's easy to work with. Used 2 cans of (15 0z.) pears. This one is going on top of my favorites. Enjoy!
