This Vegan Ginger Pear Bundt Cake is super simple to make, and so delicious. This soft cake is packed with fresh pear pieces and crystallized ginger for a taste of fall!

Hi buddies and happy Tuesday! Today is days two of #FallFlavors week, and I have such a treat in store for you! I love that Flavors of Fall week fell after #AppleWeek and #PumpkinWeek, so that we had a chance to showcase all the OTHER flavor profiles that we enjoy in autumn. One of my  personal favs this time of year is pears, and this Vegan Ginger Pear Bundt Cake is such a perfect way to bake with these fruits. This bundt is packed full of fresh pear chunks and crystallized ginger pieces, all baked up in a fluffy, warmly spiced cake. I think this is my new favorite pear cake recipe!

So you may or may not know this about me, but bundt cakes are my FAVORITE. I actually collect bundt pans and I love coming up with new recipes to bake in my pretties! They are just so easy to make, but they look so impressive. This is the type of cake that's just gorgeous all by itself. Add on a sprinkle of powdered sugar and you are done! I find that simple recipes like this ginger pear bundt cake are a must in the fall, because everyone is so busy and there are always so many events and get-togethers that require food. If you bring a bundt, I promise you nobody can possibly complain 🙂 And they don't have to know how easy it was! We had monthly birthday celebrations in PA school, and my go-to was always a bundt cake. It was the best thing I could come up with when I was so busy with studying!

Tips for vegan ginger pear bundt cake success:

This ginger pear bundt cake is super simple to make, but you do need a couple of key ingredients: fresh pears, crystallized ginger, and yogurt! Of course I use vegan yogurt, but all of my vegan cake recipes have been adapted from my "regular" recipes, so I find that dairy works just as well. The pears add flavor of course, and those little juicy pockets of fruit throughout the cake are just delicious! I am usually not a big ginger fan, but I took a chance with the crystallized ginger in here and I LOVED it. I did go pretty easy on it, but if you love it then of course feel free to add more. The yogurt is super important because it makes this cake SO soft and fluffy and moist. It's the magic secret ingredient!

#FlavorsOfFall is a group event, as always, so be sure to check out my blogger friends' yummy creations!

• In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and sugar.
• Add in the vegan butter, and beat on low until it's incorporated and has a sandy texture.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, flaxseed mixture, nondairy yogurt, vanilla extract, and add them to the dry ingredients. Mix until combined.
• Finally, pour in the unsweetened nondairy milk, and beat on medium-low until smooth and creamy.
• Add in the crystallized ginger pieces and pears, and gently combine.
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, until cake is set in the center and a toothpick comes out clean.
• Let cool slightly in the pan, then turn out onto a serving dish to finish cooling. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy!
