Anweisungen

Halve and core the pears: Cut the pears in half lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the core and seeds from each pear.

Cook the pears in butter: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted, place the pears cut-sides down into the pan. Turn the heat down to medium and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Turn the pears over, cover the pan with a lid, and cook for another 5 minutes. Uncover, turn the pears back over with their cut-sides down, and spoon the melted butter over the top of the pears. Cover and cook until mostly tender, an additional 5 minutes. Your pears may need extra time depending on how firm they are.

Make the sauce: Add the brown sugar, water, and cinnamon to the pan. Swirl and stir the mixture until it's smooth, spooning it over the pears. Let the sauce cook and thicken, about 2 minutes.

Serve: Remove the pears from the heat and transfer to serving bowls. Spoon the sauce over top and serve warm. Store any leftover sticky pears in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a saucepan until warmed through. Love the recipe? Leave us stars and a comment below!
