Ingredients

  • 3 pears
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit).
  2. Peal the pears, line an oven-proof dish with kitchen foil, and place the pears onto it.
  3. Mix the water with the maple syrup and cinnamon, drizzle it over the pears, then cover with foil.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes until tender, but still holding their shape.

Notes

  • Wrapping the pears in kitchen foil reduces the cooking time by quite a lot. The pears l had were ripen already, so they only needed 20 minutes in the oven. But if you have pears that are not too juicy, increase the time by 15-20 minutes.
  • If you do cook these pears for a baby who is under one year old, do not use honey, as this can cause infant botulism.
  • If you only cook them for adults, you can also throw some booze in, wine works particularly well with pears and cinnamon. The pears can be served either warm or cold from the fridge, and should be stored in the fridge if not consumed in the same day.
