Baked Pears with Caramel Sauce image

Harvest time grows nearer and this is the perfect recipe for using up those pears that are ripening on the trees. This is NOT a low fat dessert but can certainly be made lighter by using less sugar and fat free sour cream.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 large pears
4 Tbsp butter
1 c dark brown sugar
1 c sour cream
1/2 c toasted pecan halves

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place butter in a baking pan large enough to hold the pears in a single layer: set in the heating oven until it melts. Sprinkle sugar over melted butter, then place pears, cut side down, on top. ( Alternately, you may peel and core whole pears.) Bake until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove pan from oven, turn pears over and baste with pan sauce. Return to oven; bake until golden and glossy, about 10 minutes longer.
  • 2. Top each pear with a generous spoonful of sour cream, caramel sauce from the pan and toasted pecans.

The pears took longer to bake than the recipe stated, but they were worth the wait. They were so soft and flavorful. The caramel sauce was also delicious.

This recipe was a disaster. The pears were mushy and the caramel sauce was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

The pears were a bit too tart for my taste, but the caramel sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a sweeter variety of pear next time.
