Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a round 9x2-inch, 6-cup baking dish.
Step 2
Fill a large bowl halfway with water and add lemon juice. Peel all but 1 of the pears. Core and cut all the pears into eighths. Add pear slices to lemon water to keep them from browning.
Step 3
Combine egg and milk in a bowl and whisk until combined. Set aside.
Step 4
Whisk flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons cane sugar, and brown sugar together in a separate bowl. Use a fork to cut cold butter into flour mixture until it resemble pebbles.
Step 5
Drain pears and put into a bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch and 1/4 cup cane sugar; toss to coat.
Step 6
Pour egg mixture into the flour mixture; mix batter until just combined. Add pears to the prepared baking dish. Drop batter by the spoonful on top of pears.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 to 15 minutes before serving warm.
