    4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 2 Ripe Pears, Such as Bosc
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons Honey, Divided, plus more for serving
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup Plain Coconut Milk Yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Chopped Pecans

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Slice pears in half lengthwise and hollow out the centers, including the seeds, with a melon baller or spoon. I also cut a small slice off the opposite side so that the pears lay flat on the baking sheet.
  3. Place pears on a baking sheet with the hollowed-out side up. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the honey and season with the cinnamon and nutmeg. Bake for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove pears from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes.
  5. While cooling, mix together the coconut sugar, chopped pecans, and remaining 1/2 tablespoon of honey in a small bowl.
  6. Mix the coconut milk yogurt and vanilla bean paste together in another small bowl.
  7. Fill the centers of the pears with the yogurt mixture then top with the pecan mixture.
  8. Drizzle with more honey if desired and serve warm.
