Best 6 Baked Pears With Vanilla Cinnamon And Grappa Recipes

CREAMY BAKED PEARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar into buttered dish.
• Rub remaining 1 tablespoon butter over pear halves; arrange pears cut sides down in prepared baking dish and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Pour cream over pears and continue baking until tender, about 20 minutes more.

PEARS BAKED IN GRAPPA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Peel, quarter and core the pears. Place them in a buttered baking dish and sprinkle with sugar and grappa. Bake for 45 minutes, or until tender, depending on the ripeness of the pears.
• Sprinkle with chocolate and serve with creme fraiche.

ROASTED PEARS WITH BROWN SUGAR AND VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Arrange the pears cut side up in an 8-inch square glass baking dish. Whisk the apple juice and sugar in a small heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the butter. Pour the sauce over the pears. Bake until the pears are crisp-tender and beginning to brown, basting occasionally with the juices, about 35 minutes.
• Spoon the pears onto plates. Top with ice cream. Drizzle with any juices and serve.
• The pears can also be served frozen. To do so, cool the pears, then place them in the freezer until frozen solid, about 8 hours.

BAKED PEARS WITH CURRANTS AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the pears, cut-side up, in a shallow 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon, and add a small pat of coconut oil to each pear half. Pour the wine into the bottom of the baking dish, being careful not to disturb the pears. Sprinkle the currants over the pears -- it's OK if some fall into the wine. Place in the oven and cook until fork tender, about 50 minutes.
• To serve, set pears on a plate and dollop with mascarpone. Drizzle with some of the juices and currants from the baking pan.

BAKED PEARS WITH CURRANTS AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Using apple corer, cut through stem of each pear and all the way through pear to base to remove core. Trim bottoms so that pears stand straight. Arrange pears in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Combine sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add currants. Fill pear cavities with half of sugar mixture. Stir cup water into remaining sugar mixture; pour around pears. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Bake pears uncovered until tender and sauce is syrupy, adding more water to dish by 1/4 cupfuls if syrup becomes too thick and basting occasionally, about 50 minutes. Serve pears warm with syrup.
