Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat oven to 190°C/375°F. Halve and core pears and place cut-side up in a small baking dish.
  2. Brush with butter and maple syrup, sprinkle with cinnamon and add 2 tbsp water to the dish. Bake for 25–30 minutes until tender, adding walnuts for the final 5 minutes.
  3. Rest briefly and serve each half with yogurt and a spoonful of pan juices.
A little note

Very ripe pears will soften faster; check before the full time.

Cooking tips

  • Choose pears of similar ripeness so the halves soften together.
  • Check with a small knife near the core; very firm pears may need more time than ripe ones.
