Ingredients

10 servings

  • cooking spray
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup turbinado sugar
  • 1 cup grapeseed oil
  • 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3 cups peeled and finely chopped Bartlett pears
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®) with cooking spray; dust lightly with flour.
  • Mix flour, baking soda, sea salt, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves together in a bowl.
  • Beat sugar and grapeseed oil together in a separate bowl until creamy; stir in eggs. Stir flour mixture into sugar mixture; add pears. Blend batter with an electric mixer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Fold pecans into the batter and mix by hand until batter is well blended, about 2 more minutes. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Loosen cake from pan by gently running the edge of a knife between cake and pan; let cool in pan for 20 minutes. Place a cake plate upside-down atop cake and flip pan to turn cake onto plate.
