Apple Pear Cake

This is one of my favorite, easy-to-make cakes. It is simply very low in saturated fat, but not in flavor.

Ingredients:
Dry ingridients:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Wet ingredients:
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup chia seeds gel
1/4 cup orange juice
Fillings:
1 large apple, peeled, cored, sliced
1 pear, peeled, cored, sliced
1 tbs orange zest
1 tbs cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp vanilla

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450°. Butter and flour the tube cake pan and set aside.

Sift the dry ingredients together and set aside.

Use a handheld mixer to beat the wed ingredients until well mixed.
 

Add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and mix well.

Pour half of the batter into the bottom of the cake pan.

Place half of the apple-pear over the batter.

Pour the rest of the batter over the apple and arrange the other half of the apple on top.

Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

 Cool in the pan for 15 minutes and then invert onto a cake plate. Serve.
