FOR THE CAKE:
3 cups All-purpose Flour
1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 teaspoons Ground Cloves
1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 cup Granulated Sugar
1 cup Light Brown Sugar
1 cup Vegetable Oil
3 whole Large Eggs
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

3 cups Diced Pears
_____
FOR THE GLAZE:
1/2 cups Unsalted Butter, melted
1 cup Confectioners Sugar
1/2 Tablespoons Ground Cinnamon
1/4 cups Water (or Apple Juice)

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly grease a large bundt pan.
2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and granulated sugar. Mix in brown sugar, breaking up any clumps. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and mix in oil, eggs, vanilla extract and molasses. The batter will be quite thick. Fold in the diced pears being careful to not break up the fruit too much.
3
Spoon the cake batter into the greased bundt pan and spread the mixture evenly. Bake for approximately 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting onto a plate.
4
While cake is cooling, prepare the glaze. Melt butter and slowly add confectioner's sugar and cinnamon. Add apple juice (or water) and mix until combined. Strain the glaze to remove any potential lumps. Slowly pour over the cake while it is still warm.
