Caramel Baked Pears
Ingredients
- A recipe from an old family friend. It makes a simple, yet elegant dessert when you are having company. It should serve 8, but they are so good it usually turns out each person eats 2 halves, so really it serves 4. - Maureen Wells
- 4 x ripe Bosc pears Lemon juice
- 3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
- 3 Tbsp. butter
- 1/2 c. water Ice cream or possibly whipped cream (optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Directions
- Halve and core pears, but do not peel. Brush each with lemon juice. (If you slice a small piece off the bottom of each pear half, they will not wobble in the pan.) Place cut side up in baking dish.
- Combine brown sugar, butter and water in saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook 3 min. Pour over pears. Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 min. Uncover and bake an additional 10 min, basting pears with pan juices. Serve hot with ice cream or possibly whipped cream.
