Honey-Cinnamon Baked Pears (for Breakfast or Dessert)
The naturally-sweetened, baked pears may be enjoyed as a simple dessert served with homemade whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, or baked in the morning and served with a bowl of yogurt (my personal fave).
Spoon the seeds from the pears to create a small cavity in the flesh of the pears. Place the pear halves in a high-rimmed baking dish.
Distribute the butter cubes evenly in the cavity of each pear.
In a small bowl, mix together the chopped pecans, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spoon the mixture in the cavity of the pears, and on the top of the pears (if the cavities can't hold anymore filling).
Finally, drizzle the honey evenly over the pears.
Bake the pears, uncovered, for 25 minutes, until they are fragrant and soft.
Serve the pears warm with ice cream, whipped cream, or yogurt.
