Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large pears (2 lb. total weight, firm (don't use ripe pears))
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, plus 1 teaspoon for the pan)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter the bottom of a 9 X 13 baking dish.
  • Peel the pears, halve and core them. You can core them with a melon baller, with a metal measuring spoon, or with a paring knife, as I do in the video below. I like to leave the stems on - they make for a pretty presentation. But you can cut them off if you wish. You can also shave a thin slice off the bottom of each pear half, enabling them to stay upright in the baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, vanilla, and cinnamon. Brush the pears with the mixture on both sides.
  • Arrange the pears in the prepared baking dish, cut side down. Bake them until fork-tender, about 30 minutes per side, basting every 15 minutes with the pan juices.
  • Brush the pears one last time with the pan juices and serve warm.
