Maple Pear Pudding Cake

A lighter take on the classic maple pudding cake with reduced sugar and a fresh pear twist. The sauce blends ripe pears simmered with maple syrup thickened with arrowroot, offering a glossy, fruity base. The cake portion uses whole wheat flour swapped for some all-purpose, less butter, and honey instead of refined sugar. Once baked, the cake forms a tender crust floating atop the bubbling sweet fruit sauce. Serve warm or cold, textures contrast from saucy to soft crumb. Small batch, 7-9 servings. Aromas evolve, and syrup bubbles give timing hints. Suitable for vegetarian diets and nut-free kitchens.
