Ingredients
- 4 pear halved and cored, ripe
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- ¼ cup cranberries fresh or dried
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- rosemary optional, for garnish, or thyme, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the pear halves cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the pears with olive oil and sprinkle with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Roast the pears in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.
- In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the crumbled feta and cranberries over the pears.
- Drizzle the honey over the pears once they are out of the oven.
- Garnish with fresh rosemary or thyme, if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- You can use blue cheese or goat cheese instead of feta for a different flavor profile.
- For an extra crunch, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the pears before baking.
- If using fresh cranberries, you can toss them with a little sugar before placing them on the pears to balance the tartness.
- To make this dish more indulgent, add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top when serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 1-2 days. Simply reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
- This dish can be made ahead by assembling the pears and storing them in the fridge. Just bake them when ready to serve.
