Step #1
Pears:: Quarter the 3 pears, remove the cores and stem ends. Then slice the quarters into 4-5 slices.
Step #2
Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and set aside.
Step #3
Mix the Orange Cake mix with the water and oil until it forms a smooth batter. Fold in the peeled and diced pear (the single one cut in cubes for the mixture). Pour the mixture in a greased or lined 8-inch cake tin.
Step #4
Dip each of the lined pears in the cinnamon sugar and starting from the outside edge arrange the pears over the cake batter in a circular pattern, overlapping them to cover the batter as much as possible.
Step #5
Bake in a pre-heated oven on 160oC fan for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Step #6
Remove from the oven and allow to stand for 10-15 minutes before tipping out onto a cooling wire.
