Tahini pear cake with almonds and chocolate frosting

Tahihi.

Chocolate.

Almonds.

Moist.

My favourite.

First post. What can I write ? 

It's autumn. Sooo sad outside. Just wind and rain. All the time. 

I'm sitting in big cosy armchair near the fireplace watching Star Wars (no I'm not a mad fan, it's just marathon on axn).

It's the Independence Day of Poland today so everybody have a day off. You know, we don't celebrate it like in other countries. Actually, we don't celebrate it at all. Just a day off. OK.

Well, time for the recipe:

Ingredients:

300 g tahini 

250 g honey

1 tablespoon soda

220 flour (can be rice flour or millet flour, I prefer the millet flour, it's healthier because contain more protein)

1 tablespoon cinamon

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

100g almond flakes

200 g pears (cut into slices or cubes)

250 ml apple juice

a small handful of whole almonds

Preheat the oven to 160 C degrees. Blend tahini and honey. Taste it. It's gorgeous. Than add soda, flour, cinnamon and apple juice. Blend well. Throw in the pears and almond flakes and mix carefully. Pour the mass into a form.

Sprinkle with some almonds. 

Bake the cake for about an hour (or more).

I made the chocolate frosting from home made hazelnut chocolate cream and soy milk, but I think caramel sauce also would be a good idea. Try to experiment. 

Buon appetit !
