3/4 c Packed light brown sugar
1 lg Egg
1 1/2 ts Vanilla
2 1/4 c Flour
1 1/2 ts Baking powder

Preheat the oven to 375ºF/190ºC. Spray a 9 1/2" tube pan
with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, cream the butter with the brown sugar.
Beat in the egg and vanilla.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking
soda and salt. Stir to blend. Stir in the cinnamon and
nutmeg.

Finely chop the apples, and mince the dried pears.

Alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the
butter-sugar mixture in three additions, beating just
until the flour is no longer visible. Stir in the apples
and pears.

Scrape the batter into the tube pan and bake for 40 min.,
or until golden brown and tests clean.

Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes, then unmold the
cake and cool completely. Dust cake with confectioners
sugar just before serving.

Serving size: one 2 1/4 inch wedge.

Note: If you don't have any dried pears, you can
substitute raisins are just as good!
