Description

This dessert showcases fresh pears that are poached or baked with warm spices, drizzled with a rich caramel-like sauce, and paired with a creamy topping. It’s an effortlessly impressive dish that highlights the natural sweetness of pears, making it a go-to recipe for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • Ripe Pears (4): Choose firm but ripe pears for the best texture.
  • Honey (2 tbsp): Adds natural sweetness and a glossy finish.
  • Butter (2 tbsp): For richness and caramelization.
  • Cinnamon Stick (1): Infuses warmth and spice into the dessert.
  • Vanilla Ice Cream (optional, for serving): Complements the warm pears with creamy coolness.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the pears

Peel the pears, cut them in half, and remove the cores with a spoon or knife.

Step 2: Heat the butter and honey

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the honey until combined.

Step 3: Cook the pears

Place the pear halves in the skillet cut side down. Add the cinnamon stick and cook for 5-7 minutes, basting the pears with the buttery honey sauce.

Step 4: Flip and caramelize

Flip the pears, continue cooking for another 5 minutes, and ensure they are evenly coated in the sauce. They should turn golden and slightly softened.

Step 5: Serve warm

Place the pears on a serving plate, drizzle the sauce from the skillet over them, and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
