Pear cake with vanilla pudding

A cake your children will enjoy making with you. The fun comes twice: once in the making, once in the eating.

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 80 g melted butter
• 150 g granulated sugar
• 200 g plain flour (can be mixed with wholemeal or spelt)
• 12 g baking powder (about 1 tablespoon)
• 2 cartons sour cream
• 1 carton whipping cream (30 %)
• 40 g vanilla pudding powder
• 5 pears (or apples, raspberries or peaches, fresh or frozen)

Method

1. Mix one egg, the butter, 50 g of the sugar, the flour and the baking powder. Work the dough by hand and press it into a cake tin lined with baking paper (a crumbly dough is fine; just press it in).
2. Peel the pears, slice them and spread over the dough.
3. In a bowl, combine the sour cream, whipping cream, pudding powder, the remaining 100 g of sugar and the second egg. Pour it over the pears.
4. Bake in the middle of an oven preheated to 180 °C for about 45 minutes.
