Used ripe pears. Big hit along with the pies after Thanksgiving.

Great recipe! Made it last night and wow everyone loved it. Used pears instead of apples. Also am vegan so used flax eggs, soy milk with lemon for buttermilk and oat cream. Turned out great even with the substitutions.

I’m so inspired to bake this cake and many others from Dorie’s new book. I enjoy baking bundt cakes, I’m planning on using pears this time, the caramel looks delicious too. Thank you Dorie and Zoe.
