Aunt Josephine'S Fresh Pear Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    cooking spray
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 teaspoon fine sea salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
    1 cup turbinado sugar
    1 cup grapeseed oil
    3 large eggs, lightly beaten
    3 cups peeled and finely chopped Bartlett pears
    1 cup chopped pecans
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt(R)) with cooking spray; dust lightly with flour.
    Mix flour, baking soda, sea salt, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves together in a bowl.
    Beat sugar and grapeseed oil together in a separate bowl until creamy; stir in eggs. Stir flour mixture into sugar mixture; add pears. Blend batter with an electric mixer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Fold pecans into the batter and mix by hand until batter is well blended, about 2 more minutes. Pour batter into prepared pan.
    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Loosen cake from pan by gently running the edge of a knife between cake and pan; let cool in pan for 20 minutes. Place a cake plate upside-down atop cake and flip pan to turn cake onto plate.
