Golden Door Spiced Pear Cake

Servings: 1 loaf
Author: Pamela

Ingredients

  • 2 pears cored and diced small
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup muscovado sugar or brown sugar
  • ½ cup unrefined coconut oil melted, plus more for greasing
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour or your favorite gluten-free flour blend*
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9x5-inch loaf pan with coconut oil. Line with parchment paper, if desired.
  • Place all of the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and stir gently to combine, until a very thick batter forms.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is firm.
  • Serve warm and refrigerate leftovers.

Notes

I like King Arthur Multi-purpose Gluten-free Flour (sub 1 for 1) + you have to add 1 teaspoon xanthan gum.
