And there's one more great feature: the batter of the cake is made in a single food processor. Therefore, this cake is very easy to prepare, just blitz together all the ingredients in your food processor or blender, when it's smooth, pour the batter into cake thins, arrange the pear slice on the top and bake your cake for 40 minutes.

If you are pear lover, like me, you will love this double pear cake! This cake has pear in its batter and has some pear slice on the top. Also, you can call this cake double almond cake as well, because the it has crunchy almond chunks in it and it's made with almond flour instead of regular wheat flour.

The cake has a very moist texture, thanks to the sweet ripe pears, with some crunchy almonds and melted chocolate chunks in it, that everyone will love.
