Chocolate Pear Pudding Cake

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe pears or (700g) canned pears
  • 1 cup (120g) Einkorn All-Purpose Flour
  • ⅔ cup (130g) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons (30g) cocoa powder
  • 1 ¼ stick (150g) butter, at room temperature
  • Pinch sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400° F.
  2. Butter an 8” springform pan or a pie dish.
  3. Peel the pears, cut them in half, and use a spoon to scoop out the core and stems.
  4. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, cocoa powder, butter, and sea salt into a food processor. Process the mixture until it resembles a thick, chocolate pudding. 
  5. Scoop the cake mixture into the prepared pan and use a spatula to create an even layer of cake batter. Add the pear pieces, cut side down, into the pan in an even layer. 
  6. Bake the cake for 30 minutes, until it’s just slightly underbaked (it should be gooey in the middle!). Dust with additional cocoa powder, if desired, and serve immediately.
