Coat the oven dish with butter and a small layer of flour. Pre-heat the oven to 190 degrees celsius or 375 degrees fahrenheit. Divide 225 gram butter into cubes and add them to the bowl of your standmixer.
Add 225 gram sugar and combine on high-speed until you've reached a smooth mixture. Add a pinch of salt, combine well and add the eggs one by one.
Mix on medium speed until the batter is smooth again. Use a spatula to add the all-purpose flour along with the ground hazelnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared oven dish.
Peel the pears, remove the core and divide them into slices. Divide the pear slices over the cake batter. Divide 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top and bake in the oven for about half an hour.
The cake should be golden brown, let it cool off a bit before you remove the oven dish. Roast a handful of hazelnuts or mixed nuts in a dry skillet, chop them coarsely and divide over the cake.
The cake is best served when it's still a bit warm, enjoy!
