Stewed Pears Recipe

Quartered pears are simmered gently in a little sugar, some honey and a cinnamon stick until deliciously tender and flavorsome. The best part is that these pears team perfectly with cake, granola, yoghurt and much more which means you’ll never be bored!

📝 Ingredients

• 4 pears
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 1 1/3 cups water (more or less as required)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Peel the pears. Then cut into quarters and remove the cores.
2. 2Place 1 cup of water, sugar, honey and cinnamon stick in a medium saucepan. Set over high heat and bring to boil.
3. 3Add the pear quarters and more water to barely cover the pears. Bring to the boil over high heat.
4. 4When boiling, turn the heat down to a simmer, place the lid on and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes or until the pears are tender. Check occasionally to make sure that the pears are submerged in the liquid.
