How to make
Wash and clean the pears. Cut half of them into small pieces, and the rest into slices. Beat the butter and sugar (set 2 tablespoons aside) with a mixer and add the eggs one at a time, and the vanilla.
Then gradually add the sifted flour with the baking powder. Finally, pour in the milk and whip until you get a uniform consistency.
Stir the mixture gently with the chopped pears and pour it into a greased and floured cake pan or form. Arrange pear slices on top and sprinkle it with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar.
Bake the cake with pears for an hour in a preheated 360°F (180 °C) oven.
