Soft and Tasty Pear and Mascarpone Cake recipe - Passportcookbook

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a cake pan.

Peel and slice the pears, tossing them with lemon juice to prevent browning.

In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk until just combined.

Fold in the mascarpone cheese until smooth.

Gently fold in the sliced pears, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving.
