1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Spray a 9x13-inch pan with baking spray and set it aside.
2
For the streusel: In a small bowl, mix the streusel ingredients. The mixture should appear crumbly. Set aside.
3
For the cake: In a large bowl, beat sugar, yogurt, 2/3 cup canola oil, vanilla and eggs with an electric mixer on low speed until well blended. Add all of the remaining ingredients except honey and pears. Beat on low speed about 1 minute or until well blended. Stir in pears. Spread batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the top evenly with the streusel topping.
4
Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Then remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for about 20 minutes.
5
Slice into 12 pieces and drizzle with honey just before serving.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
