You will fall in love with the moist yet crumbly texture of this almond pear torte. Made from flour and almond flour, the almond flavor is prominent but not overwhelming and the pear subtly comes in at the end. This cake tastes even sweeter if you allow it to sit overnight so the pear juice infuses with the cake. Is this the perfect cake for the holidays? We think so.
