How to Make Pear Pistachio And Chocolate Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf tin.
  2. In a food processor, combine 200g (1 ½ cups) all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 200g (1 cup) granulated sugar, ½ tsp salt, 170g (1 cup) unsalted butter (softened), and 2 large eggs.
  3. Blend until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  5. Gently stir in 100g (1 cup) dark chocolate chips, 2 ripe pears (peeled, cored, and diced), 50g (½ cup) shelled pistachios (roughly chopped), and the zest of 1 orange.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf tin.
  7. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
