Baked Pears

4 medium Pear (Bosc, Bartlett or Anjou)

1 cup Cranberries (fresh)

4 tbsp Pecans (chopped)

1/4 tsp Cinnamon (ground; plus more, if needed)

1/4 tsp Nutmeg, ground (plus more, if needed)

4 tsp Maple syrup

8 tbsp Yoso Vanilla Coconut Yogurt

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Halve the pears and then core with a cookie scoop, melon baller, or small spoon. Slice a small part off of the backside of each pear half to create a flat surface so the pear sits flat when laid on the pan.

3. Place the pear halves on the baking sheet, cored side up. Place three cranberries into the cored part of each pear half. Sprinkle each pear half with 1/2 tbsp of the pecans and then sprinkle each pear half with the cinnamon and nutmeg. Drizzle each pear half with 1/2 tsp of maple syrup 

4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pears are tender.

5. Serve with dairy-free yogurt, if desired.

One of my favs in the fall when the kids are looking for a sweet treat. I hope you enjoy :)
