Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped pears and water. (2 minutes)

02

Step
25 mins

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the pears are very soft and beginning to break down, stirring occasionally. (25 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. (1 minute)

04

Step
3 mins

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the pear mixture until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a regular blender (in batches if necessary) and blend until smooth. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Taste and adjust the cinnamon or lemon juice as needed.

The type of pear used will affect the final flavor and sweetness of the sauce. Adjust the cinnamon and lemon juice accordingly.
For a deeper flavor, consider adding a pinch of ground nutmeg or ginger along with the cinnamon.
This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for longer storage.
Serve warm or cold over yogurt, ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or as a side to roasted meats.
