Preheat oven to 350. Cut a circle of parchment to fit the bottom of a round cake or springform pan. Slice the pears into thin slices and arrangle in the bottom of the pan in a circular pattern. In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients well (flour through Splenda). In a separate bowl, mix the oil, molasses, egg whites, and milk. Add a small amount of the dry ingredients to the wet ones, and stir to combine. Add the remaining dry ingredients, and stir just until the batter is uniform and no lumps remain. Do not overbeat. Pour batter gently over slices pears and smooth. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
