Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease the sides of a 20-cm (8-inch) round cake pan with a bit of the butter, and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place the pears in a single layer at the bottom of the pan.

Step 3

In a medium mixing-bowl, beat the sugar and the eggs until the mixture pales slightly.

Step 4

In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add to the wet ingredients and blend well, but without overmixing. Pour in the butter, and blend again.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly over the fruit, and bake for 40 minutes, until golden.

Step 6

Let the cake settle on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife all around to loosen, and flip onto a serving plate.

Step 7

Let cool and serve, slightly warm or at room temperature.
