Pear or Apple Cake

(the original recipe came from C&H sugar, but the following is the way I make it)

Pear or Apple Cake

3 eggs
3/4 Cup Oil
1 tea. Vanilla

2-1/4 Cup flour
Or:  ((((Gluten-Free: 3/4 cup Brown Rice flour, 3/4 cup White Rice flour (the sticky kind- you can get it at the Asian markets) & 3/4 cup Sorghum flour (Bob's Red Mill) and 1/2 tea. Xanthan Gum (you could use unflavored gelatin- look up how much to substitute))))

1 Cup Sucanat (or brown sugar, or white and a bit of black-strap molasses)
1 tea. Baking powder
1/2 tea. Baking soda
1-1/2 tea. Salt
1-1/2 tea. Cinnamon 
1-1/4 tea. Nutmeg
(last time, I used 2t. Cinnamon & 1-1/2t Nutmeg)

3 Cups Grated Pear or Apple
1/2 to 1-1/2 Cup chopped/ground nuts

Heat oven to 350. With and electric mixer beat eggs, oil, and vanilla.
Stir together flour, sweetener, powder, soda, salt, cinnamon & nutmeg.
Gradually beat into egg mixture until blended. Stir in pears and nuts. Spoon batter into a greased Bundt pan. Bake 45-50 minutes (Gluten-Free cooks a bit faster, so check on it sooner), until skewer inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes in pan.

Serve warm or cold. With or without frosting.

P.S.
We like to put our extra pears in the freezer pre-measured, and ready to go.
