Pears make a comforting side dish in this special recipe shared by Margaret Allen of Abingdon, Virginia. We enjoy this hot fruit with a ham dinner, she says. Ingredients:
6 medium pears, peeled, halved and cored |
1-1/2 cups water |
1/3 cup white grape juice |
1/2 cup finely chopped toasted almonds |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/8 teaspoon almond extract |
Directions:
1. Place pears, cut side down, in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine water and grape juice; pour over pears. Cover and bake at 350° for 35-45 minutes or until tender.
2. Turn the pears over. Combine almonds, sugar and extract; mix well. Spoon into pear cavities. Bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Serve warm. Yield: 6 servings.
