Served with a dollop of light whipped topping, this cake is as good for dessert as it is for breakfast. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar |
1/3 cup vegetable oil |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
2 large egg whites |
1 large egg |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 1/4 cups diced pear |
1/4 cup dried currants |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Combine first 5 ingredients in a bowl; beat at low speed of a mixer until well-blended. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (flour through cloves); stir well. Gradually add flour mixture to brown sugar mixture; beat just until blended. Stir in pear and currants.
3. Pour batter into a 9-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan 10 minutes on a wire rack.
