Tips

You may also choose to not peel the pears and bake them along with the pear skin. You may also grate the pears if you do not prefer chunky bits of pear in your cake slice. Instead of greasing the baking dish you may alternatively line the baking dish with a butter paper or an aluminum foil. You may also use an electric blender to blend the ingredients instead of using a ladle or a spatula. Move your hand or gadget blade in one direction only while mixing the ingredients. Make sure there are no egg shells present along with the broken whole eggs. You may replace vanilla extract with vanilla essence a well in similar quantities. If required, you may use low fat milk instead of full fat milk. Do not over mix the cake batter.
