Flourless Pear and Nut Cake - Moist and Easy
A wonderfully moist pear-and-nut cake made with ground hazelnuts or almonds and fresh pears. Easy to make, flourless, and optionally sweetened with allulose syrup - perfect for a cozy afternoon coffee or as a delicious dessert.
Equipment
- 1 18–20 cm springform pan
Ingredients
- 3 Eggs
- 70 g allulose syrup (or maple syrup)
- 1 pinch of salt
- 200 g ground nuts (hazelnuts or almonds)
- ½ tsp baking powder (optional)
- 150 g pear diced into small cubes
- 1 small pear (or half a large one) for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius (top and bottom heat). Line a springform pan with parchment paper.
- Mix the eggs, syrup, and salt until smooth. Stir in the nuts and baking powder (if desired), then fold in the diced pears. Spread the batter into the pan.
- For garnish, core the pear, cut it into thin slices, and arrange them on top of the batter without pressing them down.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top gets too dark, cover it with parchment paper after 20 minutes.
- Let it cool completely in the pan - it’s still very soft when warm. Only then should you remove it from the pan.
