It's fall and there are a lot of overripe pears around, so try this recipe! You will love it! It is incredibly easy and you will wonder why you haven't made it before, once you taste it. Day-old, ugly, ripe pears that you would never eat are great for this recipe. Also, and most of all, make your food with love and encourage people as they make their own creations. It's all about the love, and when people finally sit down to partake, the experience and the way you made them feel will never be forgotten.

APPLE PEAR SAUCE

Pear applesauce? Papplesauce? Appearsauce? When the apple-pear sauce is served warm, you will not need any additional sugar. As it cools it loses some of the natural sweetness, and you might want to add sugar to taste.

WARM PEAR AND WALNUT CAKE WITH LEMON CUSTARD SAUCE



Warm Pear and Walnut Cake with Lemon Custard Sauce image

Categories     Cake     Dessert     Bake     Lemon     Pear     Walnut     Fall     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 22

For sauce
1/4 cup sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 cup half and half
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
For topping
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
2 large Anjou pears, peeled, cored, cut into thin wedges
For cake
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
6 tablespoons milk (do not use low-fat or nonfat)
3 tablespoons brandy
6 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts, toasted

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Whisk sugar and egg yolks in medium bowl to blend. Bring half and half and lemon peel to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually whisk hot half and half mixture into yolk mixture. Return to saucepan. Stir over medium heat until custard thickens and leaves path on back of spoon when finger is drawn across, about 5 minutes (do not boil). Strain custard into bowl; discard solids. Whisk lemon juice and vanilla into custard. Chill until cold, about 3 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
  • Make topping:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter cake pan with 2-inch-high sides. Stir sugar and water in heavy small saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat; boil without stirring until syrup turns deep amber, occasionally swirling pan and brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush, about 10 minutes. Pour caramel over bottom of prepared pan. Overlap pears atop caramel.
  • Make cake:
  • Mix flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and butter in large bowl until creamy. Add eggs and lemon peel; beat until light and fluffy. Combine milk and brandy in small bowl. Mix dry ingredients into batter alternately with milk mixture in 3 additions each. Stir in nuts.
  • Pour batter atop pears in pan. Bake cake until golden on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in pan 5 minutes. Run small knife around edges of pan to loosen cake. Place platter over cake and invert onto platter. Let stand 1 minute. Remove pan. Serve cake warm with cold sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm pears for the best flavor and texture. Bosc, Anjou, and Bartlett pears are all good options.
  • To easily peel the pears, score them with a sharp knife and then place them in a bowl of boiling water for 1-2 minutes. The skins will then slip right off.
  • If you don't have any fresh pears on hand, you can also use canned pears for this recipe. Just be sure to drain them well before using.
  • This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, simply reheat it over low heat until warmed through.
  • Serve this sauce with your favorite desserts, such as pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

This warm pear sauce is a delicious and versatile dessert topping that can be enjoyed all year round. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet, tart, or somewhere in between, this sauce is sure to please everyone at your table.
