Ingredients

Servings

Topping

  • ¾ cup caster sugar raw
  • ½ cup water 125ml
  • lemon juice of half
  • 1 vanilla bean split
  • 2 pear peeled, cored, and cut into eighths

Cake

  • 4 egg at room temperature
  • 1 cup caster sugar raw
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • lemon juice of half
  • ½ cup olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 cup self-raising flour
  • 1 cup almond meal

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F).
  2. Heat a large ovenproof non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the water and sugar, and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Add the vanilla bean, pears, and lemon juice. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the pears are soft. Remove from the heat and set liquid topping aside while you make the cake base.
  4. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whisk the eggs and sugar until pale, thick, and about 3 times its original volume.
  5. Switch the mixer to its lowest speed and sift in the self raising flour. Fold through before adding the almond meal, oil, and lemon juice.
  6. Pour the cake mixture on top of the poached pears and bake for 40 minutes or until a cake tester comes out cleanly.
  7. To serve, turn out onto a cake platter and serve as is or with some freshly whipped cream.
