Yield Fills one standard baking pan

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 to 3 Bosc, Comice, or Red Bartlett pears, unpeeled
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 225 degrees. Line a pan with parchment. Cut each pear lengthwise into 1/8- to 1/4- inch-thick slices. Remove seeds and fibrous bits from each slice; arrange on pan, spaced 1/2 to 1 inch apart. Sprinkle with sugar.
  • Transfer to oven; dry until pears become firmer, slightly chewy, and shriveled around edges, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours. Transfer to a wire rack. Store in an airtight container, refrigerated, up to 2 days or frozen, up to 6 weeks.

These dried pears are a bit too tart for my taste. I think I'll try adding some honey next time.

I'm allergic to pears, but I can still enjoy these dried pears because they're made with a different type of pear.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dried pears didn't turn out as chewy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These dried pears are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
