Ingredients

  • 2 large pears, peeled, cored and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons liquid honey
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Grease an 8 inch square (2L) glass baking dish. Spread pears in dish and drizzle honey over it. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl beat butter with sugar until fluffy. , then beat in molasses and egg. (The secret to loosening molasses is to let it sit in a small bowl of warm water. I learned this from a cooking show and it works like a charm.).
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, ginger, cinnamon, ground cloves, baking soda and salt. Stir into molasses mixture and alternately with hot water, making three additions of dry ingredients, and two additions of water. Pour over pears.
  4. Bake in a preheated 350 F degree (180 C) oven until straw or cake tester inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Serve warm. They say it takes about 30 minutes, but from my personal experience, in order for the straw or cake tester to come out clean it has to be in the oven between 40-45 minutes.
