Baked Pears with Cranberries

Even with ordinary fruit, we can create stunning and heavenly delicious desserts with a few additions. A great example is pears, to which we add some cranberries, wine, and honey before baking. The cranberries give them a red color during baking, and the wine and honey create a delicious sauce to pour over the baked fruit.

Ingredients

  • 2 piece Pear, fresh

  • 2 spoons Juice, lemon

  • 0.5 piece Vanilla, extract, natural

  • 3 spoons Honey

  • 100 ml Alcohol, Wine, White

  • 200 g Cranberries, fresh

  • pieces Ice cream, vanilla

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Peel the pears and cut them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the cores, then place the halves in a smaller deep baking dish (cut side down). Drizzle the pears with lemon juice. Split the vanilla bean in half and scrape out the seeds with the tip of a knife, adding them to a small bowl. Pour in the wine, add the honey, and mix well to create a liquid mixture, which you then pour over the pears. Sprinkle the cranberries over the pears and add the vanilla pod to the baking dish.

  2. Bake the pears in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. During baking, baste them several times with the sauce that forms in the dish.

  3. Let the baked pears cool slightly, then place them on a board with the cut side down. Using a sharp and thin knife, slice the halves thinly, making sure they stay together. Serve the fanned-out pear halves on a plate and drizzle with the sauce from the baking dish. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve the dessert immediately.
