Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon softened butter
- 2 ripe pears – peeled, cored, and sliced, or more to taste
- 3 eggs
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons kirsch (cherry brandy)
- 2 tablespoons grated lemon zest

- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 3
Beat eggs and sugar together using an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in heavy cream, flour, kirsch, lemon zest, vanilla extract, cardamom, and salt on low speed until batter is smooth. Set batter aside to rest, about 15 minutes.
