Ingredients:

Serving

cooking spray
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups sugar
4 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour (about 13 1/2 oz)
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp aniseed, crushed
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp finely grated orange rind
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups chopped peeled pear (about 3)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
1/3 cup honey
2 tbsp fresh orange juice

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°.
To prepare cake, coat a 10-inch tube pan with cooking spray; dust with 2 tablespoons flour. Set aside.
Place sugar and eggs in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until thick and pale (about 3 minutes).
Lightly spoon 3 cups flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, aniseed, salt, and cinnamon, stirring well with a whisk.
Combine rind, 1/2 cup juice, oil, and vanilla. Add flour mixture to egg mixture alternately with juice mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; blend after each addition just until combined. Stir in pear and walnuts. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake at 375° for 55 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 15 minutes; loosen cake from sides of pan using a narrow metal spatula or knife. Place a plate upside down on top of cake pan; carefully invert cake onto plate.
To prepare syrup, combine honey and 2 tablespoons juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Brush warm syrup over top and sides of cake. Cool completely.
