Pear-rosemary Bundt Cake (Bundt cake de peras y romero)






Im really impress as time goes by and especially for me this year. (After my mom passed, sometimes I think the time stop but not)

Here we are at the end of winter and spring begins. And for many of you Fall, I love Autumn is my favorite time.

I can not stand the heat and the summers are very hot here. The good thing is the fruit and being able to swim, everything has something good.

Getting to the point about a week ago I made this recipe, we have had many pears and  are delicious so this recipe is good when you have ripe pears or not.
I love  bundt cakes always look good and they are eaten  very fast here.
I love it with a cup of tea or coffee.
It is adapted from one of my favorite cooking magazines: 
Bake from Scratch.

A hug for all and thanks by coming !
