MARGUERITE D'ANJOU PEAR CAKE
This is adapted from the Anjou Pear Cake in the BBC Good Food Cakes app. I've added the lemon zest for more flavor, switched from poire William liqueur to brandy (that's what I had), left out the glaze for a simpler, more clafouti-like cake, switched to all egg white to use up some extras and changed the measurements from weight to volume (for the most part) to make it easier for us Americans. I also decided to name this yummy cake after Marguerite d'Anjou, queen to King Henry VI.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350Ëš Fahrenheit. Line the bottom of a 9"-round springform pan with parchment paper, then grease the bottom and sides of the pan. Set on a baking sheet and set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the pear chunks, lemon zest and juice and brandy. Set aside.
- Over medium heat in a large saucepan, melt the butter, being careful not to let it brown. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour, baking powder and sugar. Gradually stir in the egg whites (or two whole eggs). Fold in the pears and any accumulated juices then pour batter in the prepared cake tin. Bake in the middle of the oven for 50 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Cool the cake in its tin for a few minutes, then turn out and serve warm.

SPICED D'ANJOU PEAR BREAD
More like cake than bread, this 'plummy' creation is moist and delicious. The pears and spices combine so tastily that I only bake this when there are other people around so I won't eat both loaves all by myself.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and generously grease two large loaf pans. (The long pieces of pear make the loaves more susceptible to sticking in the pans and falling apart, so make sure you grease the pans generously.)
- In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, vegetable oil, molasses, and eggs. Mix in salt, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and allspice. Stir the pear slices in, coating them evenly. Stir in the flour. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pans
- Bake for 50 to 65 minutes. Allow loaves to cool in pan about ten minutes before removing them and placing them on a wire rack to cool completely.
