Baked Pears
Report
These baked pears are the perfect, light dessert that pairs (or should I say "pears") well with anything! Warm and naturally sweet, these are a go-to when I'm looking for a quick and sweet Fall treat.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish or oven safe casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside.Peel pears, cut in half, and core out the middle with a melon baller or spoon.
- Place pears flat side up in the baking dish. Brush each pear all over with lemon juice to keep from browning.
- Sprinkle evenly with cinnamon and apple pie spice then sprinkle evenly with brown sugar.
- Stir the maple syrup and vanilla extract until combined. Drizzle evenly over the pears.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until soft and slightly caramelized on the edges. Remove from oven and flip pears, flat-side down and spoon excess sauce from the pan over the pears so each pear is covered in the caramel-y sauce.
- Bake another 30-45 minutes until you reach desired caramel thickness and color. The longer you bake, the thicker and darker the caramel will be.
- Serve warm with granola, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or yogurt.
