FAQ
How do I bake the pears?
Preheat the oven to about 180°C (350°F). Core or halve the pears, sprinkle with cinnamon, place on a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 15–25 minutes.
What are the health benefits?
Pears provide fiber and polyphenols that support gut bacteria when eaten as part of a varied diet; cinnamon adds warmth and aroma without overpowering flavor.
Can I add other flavors?
Yes. You can add a pinch of nutmeg, vanilla, or a drizzle of honey or maple for extra sweetness, but keep it moderate.
How should I serve it?
Serve warm on its own or with yogurt or chopped nuts for texture and prebiotic-friendly options.
Are there allergen considerations?
If you use yogurt, it contains dairy; nuts are common allergens. Choose dairy-free yogurt or omit nuts if needed.
What pear varieties work best?
Ripe but firm pears (like Bosc, Anjou, or Bartlett) hold their shape well when baked.
How much should I eat per serving?
One to two pears make a small dessert; adjust to your hunger and fiber goals.
How should I store leftovers?
refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2–3 days; reheat gently.
Can I make it in the microwave?
Yes, you can microwave pear halves with cinnamon for a quick version, but baking yields deeper flavor.
