Boozy Baked Pears With Ginger And Brown Sugar Recipes

BOOZY BAKED PEARS WITH GINGER AND BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Place first five ingredients in a small saucepot. Heat until warmed through, swirl the pan to coat the dried fruit, and set aside to soak.
• Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, crumble the butter into the mixture until it forms a slightly moist crumb topping.
• Fill each pear with some of the mixture.
• Place the pears in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; pour the brandy mixture evenly over the pears. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 375°F
• Uncover, gently flip the pears upside down-it's fine if some of the mixture falls out of the center. Bake for an additional 30 minutes. Transfer the pears to serving bowls; spoon the juices and fruit over.
• For added flair, serve each pear with a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt or sprinkle with lime zest!

BAKED PEARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cut top quarter of pears off; create a well by scooping out the core, being careful not to puncture the bottom of the pear. Arrange pears in a shallow baking dish.
• Drizzle maple syrup over pears. Place 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1 tablespoon butter in each pear; sprinkle with cinnamon.
• Bake in preheated oven until pears are easily pierced with a fork, 35 to 50 minutes. Serve with ice cream.
