German Pear Cake - How to Make Pear Kuchen

This German Pear Cake also called Pear Kuchen is made with ripe pears caramelized in brown sugar and butter and baked on top along with toasted hazelnuts. The German Pear Cake sets itself apart from other cake recipes by using yeast as it's rising agent. You can definitely spice it up with your choice of warm spices like cinnamon or nutmeg if you'd like. I love this pear cake served with ice cream!

Howdy Alicia! This recipe looks so cool and your cake turned out perfect in my book! This might be one of my favorite fall cakes I’ve seen so far!

Hey Brian, thank you, I appreciate that 😊 I like to make this cake when the family comes over since some people don't like really sweet desserts. It's perfect for them. Anyone who wants a little something sweeter can just add ice cream 😃 Thanks for stopping by!
