Serve this warm fruit dessert as is or spoon it over praline ice cream (our recommendation), pound cake, waffles, or pancakes. Ingredients:
3 (15-ounce) cans chopped pears, undrained (we tested with libby's) |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/3 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons bourbon |
2 tablespoons butter or margarine |
1/3 cup flaked coconut, toasted |
1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted |
Directions:
1. Drain pears, reserving 1 1/4 cups liquid. Set pears aside. Combine 1/4 cup reserved liquid with cornstarch, vanilla, and cinnamon, stirring until smooth.
2. Combine remaining 1 cup liquid with sugar, bourbon, and butter in a small saucepan; gradually stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until butter melts and sauce is thickened.
3. Place pears in an ungreased 8 square baking dish. Pour sauce over pears; sprinkle with coconut and pecans.
4. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 18 minutes or until bubbly. Serve warm.
