MY GRANDMOTHER'S PEAR CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease the sides of a 20-cm (8-inch) round cake pan with a bit of the butter, and line the bottom with parchment paper.
• Place the pears in a single layer at the bottom of the pan.
• In a medium mixing-bowl, beat the sugar and the eggs until the mixture pales slightly.
• In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add to the wet ingredients and blend well, but without overmixing. Pour in the butter, and blend again.
• Pour the batter evenly over the fruit, and bake for 40 minutes, until golden.
• Let the cake settle on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife all around to loosen, and flip onto a serving plate.
• Let cool and serve, slightly warm or at room temperature.

GâTEAU DE POMMES GRAND-MèRE (GRANDMOTHER'S APPLE CA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Generously grease an 8-inch round cake pan (no need to grease if pan is nonstick).
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the apples, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the Calvados, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, and the cinnamon. Set aside until needed.
• Whisk together the yogurt and the remaining sugar in a large bowl, until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Combine the flour and baking soda, then add the oil and eggs, whisking well after each addition. Stir the apple pieces into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Set on a sturdy baking sheet and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
• Note: The cake is best made several hours before serving, or better yet, the night before.

THE APPLE LADY'S APPLE CAKE (GATEAU AUX POMMES DE LA REINE DES POMMES)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Butter a 9-inch springform pan and set it aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and sea salt, and stir to blend. Add the vanilla extract, eggs, oil, and milk, and stir until well blended. Add the apples and stir to thoroughly coat them with the batter.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared cake pan. Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake until fairly firm and golden, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine the sugar, egg, and melted butter, and stir to blend. Set it aside.
• Remove the cake from the oven and pour the topping mixture over it. Return the cake to the oven and bake until the top is a deep golden brown and the cake feels quite firm when pressed with a fingertip, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the cake pan to a rack and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Then run a knife around the sides of the pan, and release and remove the springform side, leaving the cake on the pan base. Serve at room temperature, cut into thin wedges.
