Upside-down Pear Cake | Spongy Upside-down Pear Cake Recipe!!

Jan 3, 2011 · Leave a Comment

When I first started this blog I promised myself I’d be posting a recipe at least once a week. Back then, I was so excited about this whole blogging thing that I found myselft posting two, three, recipes a week. But school work has been leaving me with very little time to cook these days, and that’s the main reason why I can’t keep with my former promise all the time. Anyway, today, after an almost 12 hour sleep (yes, that’s possible), I cured my tiredness from the very busy week I had, and sit in front of the computer after lunch – this time, not to work on the projects I have on hand, but to write you the recipe for a delicious upside-down pear cake.

As I’ve told you in the previous post, I’ve been working with gluten-free flours recently and the results couldn’t  be better. So, this cake not only is gluten-free but delicious on its own. Chickpea flour is here used in place of eggs and the pairing of buckwheat with fall fruits such as pears, seems to work extremely well. As we’re approaching Christmas, and I’m experimenting with a couple ingredients typicall for this time of the year, it’s more likely that the following recipes will be desserts, cakes, and hearty savory dishes – we’ll then have plenty of time in January to  get back on track. ; )

  • 130 grams (1 cup) white rice flour
  • 1 teaspoon powdered ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 5 tablespoons melted vegan margarine

  • 60 ml (¼ cup) plus 3 tablespoons water
  • 160 ml (2/3 cups) soy milk

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 180ºC. Oil a 23 cm round baking pan.
  • Heat a large skill let over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons of vegan margarine, pears, sugar, and cinnamon, and cook, covered, for 5 to 10minutes, or until the pears are tender and slightly caramelized. Let the cooked pears cool to room temperature. Transfer the pears and their syrup to the prepared pan, spreading evenly.

  • In another large bowl, whisk the melted vegan margarine and sugar. Add the yoghurt, soy milk, and agave nectar to the mixture, stirring to combine.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, add the gram flour and water, whisking everything until you get a smooth consistency. Slowly pour this mixture over the wet mixture and combine well.
  • Using a rubber spatula, fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture, being careful not to overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan – over the pears-  and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting onto a large plate.
