Healthy Baked Pears With Cinnamon Food

BAKED PEARS WITH CURRANTS AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the pears, cut-side up, in a shallow 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon, and add a small pat of coconut oil to each pear half. Pour the wine into the bottom of the baking dish, being careful not to disturb the pears. Sprinkle the currants over the pears -- it's OK if some fall into the wine. Place in the oven and cook until fork tender, about 50 minutes.
• To serve, set pears on a plate and dollop with mascarpone. Drizzle with some of the juices and currants from the baking pan.

• Take the dish out of the oven.
• Using a spoon, scoop up any juice on the bottom of the pan and drizzle it over the pears.
• Sprinkle over the brown sugar.

BAKED PEARS WITH CURRANTS AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Using apple corer, cut through stem of each pear and all the way through pear to base to remove core. Trim bottoms so that pears stand straight. Arrange pears in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Combine sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add currants. Fill pear cavities with half of sugar mixture. Stir cup water into remaining sugar mixture; pour around pears. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Bake pears uncovered until tender and sauce is syrupy, adding more water to dish by 1/4 cupfuls if syrup becomes too thick and basting occasionally, about 50 minutes. Serve pears warm with syrup.
