CIDER POACHED PEARS
This is an excellent dessert that is sure to impress your friends or family. The pears hold up really well in the slow cooker, and by poaching them with cider, the complementary spices, like cinnamon and nutmeg, are infused into each pear. Not only do the pears taste amazing, but they look as good as they taste.

Steps:
- Combine the cider, sugar, orange juice, orange zest, cloves, cinnamon stick and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook just until the sugar dissolves, 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker. Add the pears, and then cover with a lid and cook on low2 hours, turning the pears halfway through.
- Remove the pears using a slotted spoon and transfer to serving plates or a shallow dish. Carefully strain the poaching liquid back into the saucepan and reduce the liquid by half until thickened and syrupy. Pour the reduced sauce over the pears and chill in the refrigerator an additional 2 hours or up to 2 days.

[email protected]This recipe is a waste of time. The pears were tough and the syrup was too sweet.

[email protected]The pears were a bit mushy for my liking, but the cider syrup was delicious. I think I'll try poaching the pears for a shorter amount of time next time.

[email protected]These pears were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a tart variety of pear. Next time, I'll use a sweeter pear.

[email protected]I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. The pears are always perfectly cooked, and the cider syrup is delicious. I like to add a little bit of ginger to the poaching liquid for an extra kick.
