Two iced pumpkin spice lattes served on wooden tray with fall decorations

A moist and flavorful cake made with olive oil, almond flour, and fresh red pears, finished with a touch of cinnamon and brown sugar.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons 2% milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Dash salt
  • 3 medium red pears, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Sweetened whipped cream, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 10-inch springform pan and place it on a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together 1-1/4 cups brown sugar, olive oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla until well blended.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually beat dry mixture into the sugar mixture.
  4. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Arrange pear slices over the top.
  5. Sprinkle pears with remaining 2 teaspoons brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
  6. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream if desired.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm pears for best texture.
  • Almond flour adds moisture and nuttiness to the cake.
  • Best served the same day, but leftovers can be stored covered at room temperature for up to 2 days.
