Ginger Baked Pears Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the topping: Combine the ingredients in a medium bowl and work together with a fork or with your fingertips until the ingredients are moistened.
• For the filling: Combine the pears slices, lemon juice, and ginger in a large bowl. Add the sugar and flour and toss to blend.
• Spray an 8 by 8-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Transfer the pear mixture to the dish. Sprinkle the topping over the pears. Bake crumble until the pears are tender and the topping is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, with a scoop of ice cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Put the sugar, vinegar, orange zest and juice, ginger, bay leaves and peppercorns in a large pan. Bring slowly to the boil, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar, then boil for 5 mins.
• Meanwhile, peel, core and halve or quarter the pears, depending on size. Add the pears to the pan and poach gently for 10-15 mins until they are just tender. Remove with a slotted spoon and pack into warm sterilised Kilner jars with rubber seals (see tip below).
• Boil the vinegar mixture hard to reduce by a third, then pour over the pears, including the spices. The pears need to be completely covered with the liquid. Fit the rubber seal and clamp the jar tightly closed. Reserve any leftover syrup for topping up the jars later, as the pears will absorb the syrup over time. Store for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Use a saucepan that has a cover and is large enough to hold the pears upright in a single layer.
• Place the water, sugar, rind, and juice in the saucepan and stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil; stir in the ginger and set aside.
• With a vegetable peeler, peel the pears; if necessary, trim the bottoms a bit so they will stand upright.
• Place the pears in the syrup, cover, and cook over medium heat; baste the pears frequently (a ladle is handy for this since the ginger might get stuck in a bulb baster).
• Do not over cook; test with a cake tester or toothpick; when they pierce easily they are done; start testing after 20 minutes.
• When the pears are just tender, transfer them with a slotted spoon to a shallow bowl.
• Add the marmalade to the syrup and let boil for 5 minutes.
• Then add in the cognac, and pour the hot sauce over the pears.
• With a ladle or large spoon baste occasionally until cool; cover and refrigerate.
• Serve each pear standing upright in a compote or dessert bowl, with several spoonfuls of the syrup.

Steps:

• Toss chopped pears with sugar, ginger, and cloves in a large bowl. Set aside and let the sugar dissolve in the pear juices.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan.
• Stir vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs into the pears. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the pear mixture and stir gently just to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Get yourself a baking dish that will fit the pears cut side down in one layer. Add cream, sugar, ginger, cinnamon and vanilla essence and give a good stir to mix together.
• Now add the pears to the mixture and make sure that the pears get a good coating of the mixture and place into the oven for 30-35 minutes.Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Place first five ingredients in a small saucepot. Heat until warmed through, swirl the pan to coat the dried fruit, and set aside to soak.
• Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, crumble the butter into the mixture until it forms a slightly moist crumb topping.
• Fill each pear with some of the mixture.
• Place the pears in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; pour the brandy mixture evenly over the pears. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 375°F
• Uncover, gently flip the pears upside down-it's fine if some of the mixture falls out of the center. Bake for an additional 30 minutes. Transfer the pears to serving bowls; spoon the juices and fruit over.
• For added flair, serve each pear with a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt or sprinkle with lime zest!
