I'm fed up with these prejudices… I'm a man and I'm also in a hurry, yet again, we have to stay silent and let the female dictatorship make us believe that they alone take care of everything at home! Wake up, my brothers, and make your voices heard! LONG LIVE THE GUARD DOGS!!! And long live women too, of course.

tartinepouki rated this recipe 5/5, 4 years and 9 months ago. Perfect for an afternoon snack with our little coffee… Two ripe and juicy Conference pears were dreaming of ending up in a cake, and I wasn't about to deprive them of the pleasure of browning in the oven light!!!! Do the pears suffer? Who knows??? Well, I'm tackling my cake for the busy woman… And why not for the busy man, for that matter??? Although no, he might be in a hurry to devour it without leaving us a crumb!!! Some of them are capable of that, at least!!! So, 2 pears so ripe that I couldn't find them in the cake… 100g of flour and 25g of almond flour, 40g white sugar and 40g brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of bitter almond extract instead of vanilla extract, milk chocolate chips. I prepare all this, I take my time, I put it in the oven, I start to tidy up and what do I see? My bottle of olive oil… And there was light… I forgot to put it in the batter… I rush into the oven, come back out with the pan without a second thought, pour everything back into the bowl, add the oil, 40 seconds at speed 4 (that's probably where my pears disappeared!), pour it back into the pan, back into the oven… and cross my fingers… When it comes out of the oven, well, it looks very nice… I brush it with the pear and ginger jam… We taste it, well, it's very good… A little dense, almost like a flan… I may have just invented a recipe, the recipe for "Pear and Olive Oil Flan, Here It Is," which may well go down in history… And there you have it… What a story!!!

Mylenemanc rated this recipe 5/5, 7 years and 5 months ago: Absolutely fantastic and super quick to make! I didn't use apricot jam, and I added a little rum to the mixture. I used a can of pears (it was perfect because they were so soft) and kept the last two for decoration with some slivered almonds.

S Suzann rated this recipe 5/5, 7 years and 10 months ago. I just tested it with some canned pears I had in my cupboard and put the rest of the pears, sliced ​​lengthwise, on the pastry. Quite pretty. I'm looking forward to tasting it. Thank you for sharing.

R ricore92 rated this recipe 5/5, 7 years and 10 months ago: Another excellent recipe! I didn't add the apricot jam, but it was still very good without it. Still warm, it's amazing! Made it tonight, here's what's left. Thank you! Since getting the Thermomix in July, every recipe is a delight for the taste buds. My wife is using it too. Since then, new aromas and flavors fill the apartment. Thank you!

Aurélie gave this recipe 5/5, 7 years and 7 months ago Thank you for the recipe This cake has only one flaw: once you take a slice, it's impossible to stop It serves 8… we finished it between 5 of us… and I think if there had been any more, we would have eaten even more! Bears !!! … And two days later, a peach and chocolate version… because this cake is REALLY too good !

Naturailes rated this recipe 5/5, 1 year and 10 months ago. A very simple cake, just the way I like it! Made with 2 tomatoes and 1 apple from my zero-waste basket, 75g of dark chocolate, and reduced the sugar to 75g. I used a neutral oil because olive oil has too strong a flavor for me. This cake truly lives up to its name and is incredibly moist Thank you, Marie!

Isa1981 rated this recipe 5/5, 5 years and 4 months ago: Very good. I used whole wheat flour and replaced the sugar with brown sugar (70g). I added 2 apples and a pear, and milk chocolate chips. Yum! Thank you, Marie!

RyanAdam rated this recipe 5/5, 7 years and 6 months ago. I made it with what I had on hand: 3 apples, cinnamon, and half a bar of milk chocolate that I chopped into small pieces. I'll also try it with pears and vanilla next time. In any case, the recipe is a hit with my son and me; a real treat, simple and quick. Thanks for the recipe!
