Description
A delightful dessert that combines the natural sweetness of ripe pears with warm, comforting flavors of cinnamon and honey. Simple and quick to prepare, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium pears
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Then, peel the pears and cut off the ends. Slice each pear in half and carefully remove the core.
- Arrange the halved pears face down on a baking sheet to caramelize nicely.
- In a small bowl, combine the honey, cinnamon, coconut oil (or butter), and vanilla extract. Microwave the mixture for about 30 seconds to warm it slightly.
- Drizzle half to three-quarters of the honey-cinnamon mixture over the pears. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes.
- Once baked, let the pears cool slightly before serving. Use the remaining honey-cinnamon mixture to drizzle over each pear.
Notes
Serve warm, paired with vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt. Garnish with chopped nuts or additional cinnamon for extra flavor.
