Instructions
-
Heat oven to 350 °F. You'll need a nonstick 12 to 15 cup capacity Bundt pan coated with nonstick spray. Bring water, 3/4 cup sugar and the sliced ginger to boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes or until syrupy. Discard ginger slices.
-
Meanwhile, mix flour, remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar, the baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
-
Whisk together milk, olive oil, 1/2 cup cooled ginger syrup, the eggs, egg white, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Stir into flour mixture until just blended.
-
Stir chopped pear and crystallized ginger into batter. Pour into pan; bake 50 minutes or until wooden skewer inserted into center of cake comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 15 minutes before inverting. Brush hot cake with remaining ginger syrup, sprinkle with turbinado sugar and let cool. Top with strips of crystallized ginger, if desired.
Why this Pear Ginger Bundt Cake works for PCOS
Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Pear Ginger Bundt Cake works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
