Spicy Baked Pears
Total preparation time: 10 minutes
Serves: 10Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mace
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 5 pears, firm
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- dollop vanilla-flavored yogurt
Steps:
- In 9x13 pan mix sugar and spices and spread evenly. Rinse pears and cut in half lengthwise, core and stem. (I use a melon baller to take the core out). Lay pears cut side down in single layer on sugar mixture.
