Easy Savory Baked Pears
Report
These Easy Savory Baked Pears make a delicious and different side dish or accompaniment to a cheeseboard. Tender soft pears with red onion flavored with rosemary and maple syrup - these are just perfect with turkey for Thanksgiving, or as an accompaniment to a Christmas ham. Simple to make, the pears roast in the oven quickly, to give you a healthy, naturally sweet side dish that is just a little bit different. Try these for your holiday table!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF.
- Cut each pear vertically into quarters and use a teaspoon to remove the core and seeds.
- Peel the onion and cut into wedges.
- Place the pears to a baking pan or ovenproof dish.
- Add the onion wedges and sprigs of rosemary.
- Pour over the olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Toss gently to ensure each pear and onion wedge is well coated.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until everything is soft and starting to caramelize.
- Serve hot, warm or room temperature.
Notes
- I like to use anjou pears, as they are naturally sweet, with a firm texture and gorgeous two-tone skin. But be guided by what is in the grocery store. (see the bulk of post for more tips on choosing your pear)
- I love the color pop of red onions, but any onion will work well here.
- Feel free to substitute honey or the maple syrup.
- Swap the apple cider vinegar for white wine vinegar if you don't have ACV.
