Instructions

  1. Peel pears, and slice in half lengthwise.
  2. Leave the stems but remove the core.
  3. In a large, shallow skillet, bring apple cider and spices just to boil over medium heat.
  4. Add pears.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer pears until tender, about 20-25 minutes. I flip my pears over half way through.
  6. Serve pears warm with cider spooned over the top.
