3.Spoon into prepared pan, smoothing top. Arrange pear on top. Sprinkle with combined caster sugar and cinnamon.
4.Bake for 30 minutes, until a skewer insened comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with dusting sugar, slice and serve.
