This recipe doesn't call for any sweetener, because the pears are sweet enough on their own. They'll carmelize nicely as you sautee them too.
You will need:
- Pears. However many you want, thinly sliced and cored. You could peel them, but I'm just about always too lazy to do that, and it hasn't killed me yet.
- Butter. A tablespoon or two.
- A dash of cinnamon.
- An optional dash of vanilla extract or bean. A dash is slightly larger than a smidgen.
Directions:
Melt butter in a large-ish skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced pears, cinnamon, and vanilla if using. Sautee for 10-15 minutes, shaking or flipping the pears periodically. Continue until the pears are slightly browned and slightly soft. Or really brown and really soft if that's your style.
Eat. Add whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if you like.
Robin Robin Robin! I made this and it was delicious!
ReplyDeleteBut I didn't use pears; I used apples. And a "dash" of vanilla turned into a "bunch" of vanilla, as did the cinnamon. And then I made a separate one that also had caramel sauce in it, and it was even better!
And we found a recipe for whipped cream and made it in the blender. And we drenched the apples in it. I have pictures that I can show you. It looks grosser than it tasted.
That sounds AMAZING! I believe that it would taste good, whatever it would look like.
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious!
