Ingredients

▢ 4 pears large and if your pears are the type with a tough skin like a russet then best to peel them.
▢ 1¼ cup double cream or whipping cream
▢ ¼ cup fine castor sugar
▢ ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
▢ ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
▢ Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
▢ 1 teaspoon grated fresh root ginger

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 C (350F,Gas 2)
Lightly butter a shallow baking dish.
Peel and halve the pears, removing the cores.
Place the pears flat side down in the dish.
Mix the cream, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, nutmeg and ginger together.
Pour the mixture over the pears and place in the pre-heated oven.
Bake for about half an hour or until the pears are soft and golden brown. Baste at intervals.
Cool before serving.

Notes

If the pears have a tough skin, the dessert will be nicer to eat if you peel them first.
When the pears are soft when pierced with a knife blade, they are ready to eat.
