I used Bosc pears-they keep their shape. Very tasty! Ingredients:
1 large pear |
vegetable oil cooking spray |
2 tablespoons cream cheese (i use no fat) |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 tablespoon whole half walnuts (or pecans) |
2 teaspoons honey |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Peel, if you wish (I leave them unpeeled) Slice pear in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds to make a nice circle. Spray with veggies spray and set aside in a gratin dish sprayed with veggie spray, cut side up.
3. In a small bowl mix together, cream cheese, salt, nutmeg and 1 teaspoon honey. Fill each pear half cavity with half of the cheese mixture.
4. Place a half walnut on top of the cheese mixture; lightly press it down. Drizzle pear halves with remaining teaspoon of honey.
5. On centre grate in oven, roast at 350°F for about 1 hour or until soft. Test with a toothpick at about 45 minutes.
