A great eggy and lightly sweet treat. I toasted the hazelnuts beforehand and used apple instead of pear. Doubled the cardamom since I didn’t have fresh to grind.

I made it and it was drowning in butter. And not much cardamom flavor with 1/8 teaspoon.

It's buttery, but it's never been overdone. I grind cardamom pods fresh, so 1/8 teaspoon is plenty. If you're using the stuff that comes in a can or jar, you'd possibly need more.

mmm... I am puzzled by the amount of butter (1 stick) to cook 4oz of pears. They're going to be drowning in butter! I've made german pancakes before with much less butter. Just wondering...
