Ingredients
For the cardamom cream
- 1/2 cup marscapone
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- 1 tbsp milk (regular or almond)
For the pears
- 2 ripe but firm bosc pears (on the larger side)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup walnut pieces, chopped
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1 tbsp butter, melted
- 4 tbsp maple syrup, divided
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F. Line the baking dish with parchment paper.
- Make the cardamom cream by whisking together the mascarpone, ground cardamom, icing sugar and milk. Set aside
- Cut each pear in half lengthwise and lay pear halves skin-side down in the baking dish. If needed, slice a small piece off skin-side so the pears lay flat in the baking dish.
- With small spoon (or melon baller), scoop out the cores / seeds in the middle of each pear half.
- Mix together the oats, walnuts, cinnamon, sugar and melted butter.
- Divide the oat mixture between four pear halves, spooning into the scooped out center of each pear. Drizzle each pear half with 1 tbsp maple syrup .
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the oat mixture is golden brown and the pears are soft, tender but still hold their shape.
- Let sit for about 5 minutes and then serve each with a dollop of the cardamon cream.
