Pear & Chocolate Cake


Ingredients:
- 200 g chocolate (good quality, 70% cacao)
- 200 g spelt flour
- 2 eggs
- 150 g agave syrup
- ground nuts
- 7-8 ripen pears
- baking powder.

Preheat the oven at 180C. Melt the chocolate in a heated bain-marie. Peel the pears, then slice 3 (for decoration) of them and chop the others. Whisk the egg yolks with the flour and the agave syrup then add the chopped pears. In a separate bowl, beat the whites until they reach a soft peak. Fold the melted chocolate into flour mixture and then add the whites. Mix altogether carefully with the baking powder. Pour this mixture into the baking tin, arrange the pear slices and sprinkle with ground nuts. Bake for 40 minutes.
