I have never baked a pear before in my life, but let me tell you that these stuffed pears are so delicious! I originally saw this idea in one of my vegetarian cookbooks but then I found a recipe I like even more on the blog Live Laugh Eat. I only changed her recipe slightly:
Ingredients:
3 pears
4 oz goat cheese
5 dried figs
1 T honey
1/4 C chopped pecans
dash of cinnamon
sparkling cider
Directions:
preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Mix the goat cheese, figs, pecans, honey and cinnamon in a bowl.
Cut the pears lengthwise and cut out the cores.
Spoon the filling into the pears and place in a baking dish. Pour apple cider into the pan so it creates a shallow bath. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
I served it on its own platter alongside a spinach salad with poppyseed dressing and it was a big hit... Even Rick liked it and he normally hates goat cheese.
