Let cool slightly for about 5-10 minutes. Transfer warm pears to individual dessert plates or bowls. Top each pear half with a generous dollop of sour cream, drizzle with the warm caramel pan sauce, and sprinkle with toasted nuts. Serve immediately.
For a richer caramel sauce, use salted butter.
A splash of bourbon or rum added to the caramel sauce after removing from the oven elevates the flavor profile.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat.
Consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the brown sugar for a warmer, spicier flavor.

Dec 17, 2024So easy to make and impressive to serve. My family loved it. I used walnuts instead of pistachios, and it worked perfectly.

Jul 12, 2023I've made this recipe multiple times and it's always a winner. The sour cream is the perfect counterpoint to the sweetness of the pears and caramel.
