The cake in the photo was a six-inch version, using half the ingredients of the full nine-inch recipe. So, I did use less pear there because that cake was small. The pear slices are just on top, not hidden inside.

Just curious how it will turn out if I put 3 in it, are the other ones just buried in the cake batter?

I remember the batter was on the stiff side, and I definitely had to spread it to the edges of the pan. I just checked the ingredients for you, and they are correct. I’ll make a note in the directions, though, to spread it to cover the fruit. Thanks, and I’m hoping it comes out great! Running a knife around the edge of the cake pan before you invert it is a good idea.

I’m always nervous to turn upside down cakes out of the pan. But when you see the glistening fruit, ahhh, huge sigh of relief. I have some pears form my CSA box too, yep, must try this!

It sounds like you had quite a productive weekend. Thanks for reminding me to get rid of the eyesore AC units!
