Directions:


Adjust the oven rack to the centre position and preheat it to 375F. Grease 4 small bundt pans.

In a large basin, thoroughly mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and sea salt.  Put aside.

In a blender, combine the dates, almond butter, pear puree, reserved water, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, and then thoroughly mix the blended mixture into the flour mixture. Add the cider vinegar and whisk until bubbles appear.

Pour cake batter into the prepared pans and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the centre comes out clean. Take out of the oven, and allow the cakes to cool in the pan on the rack for approximately one hour.

Release the mould onto a parchment paper-lined sheet pan.

In a double boiler, gently reheat the hazelnut butter until it becomes pourable (without boiling), then drizzle it over the cakes.

 

Have fun!

 

 

You can use 1 tablespoon of cacao powder, 1/4 cup hazelnut (or almond) butter, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and just enough water to make it pourable in place of the CBD hazelnut butter if you can't find it or would want to make your glaze.
