It Bakes Me Happy

Baked Pears – GYCO

Filed Under: breakfast, dessert Tagged With: challenge, cinnamon, coconut oil, oat, pear

These soft, delicious baked pears have just a hint of cinnamon and honey to make them a real breakfast treat.
Baked Pears
Growing up my sister and I spent a lot of time out in the field next to our home climbing trees and eating sand pears. I have many a fond memory of those days, so you can imagine how excited I was when I moved off to college and had a sand pear tree right outside my bedroom window.
A few weeks ago when I signed up for GYCO Pears, I was a little intimidated, I haven’t eaten a pear in years! I honestly forgot that I had signed up, only to remember over the weekend, panic and rush out to find some pears. I came across these lovely little delicate Forelle pears at my local Publix. I fell asleep last night trying to decide what to make and this morning it hit me to bake them and enjoy them for breakfast. Soft, delicious bites of fruit with a hint of cinnamon and honey make this a real breakfast treat; served warm with a scoop of ice cream for dessert would be a great way to indulge. Enjoy and happy baking!
