Pear Flip-Flop

4 1/2 T unsalted butter
3/4 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 c. sugar
1 1/2 t. baking powder
pinch of salt
3/4 c. milk
1 1/2 t. vanilla
1 1/2 c. sliced or diced pears

1.  Cut the butter into chunks and toss into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate.  Place in a 350 degree F oven for 5 to 8 minutes or until butter is melted.  Meanwhile whisk together dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Add milk and vanilla and whisk until smooth.
2.  Pour batter over the hot butter; top with the pears.  Bake 45 minutes, or until top is browned and a toothpick poked into the center comes out clean.  As they bake, the pears will sink to the bottom and form their own layer.
3.  Cool 30 minutes, dust with powdered sugar.  Serve slightly warm, straight from the dish.
