Ingredients
  

  • 1 Red Anjou Pear (ripe)
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 6 Semisweet Chocolate Chips
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Pecans
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Maple Syrup

  • Vanilla Ice Cream
  • Whipped Cream

Instructions
 

  • Adjust toaster oven cooking rack to the bottom position and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking dish or cookie sheet.
  • Halve pear and use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds. If the halves do not lay flat, slice a thin piece off the back.
  • Place pear halves in the baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon, fill with chocolate chips and pecan pieces. Drizzle maple syrup over both halves.
  • Bake until pears soften about 25 to 35 minutes. The bake time will vary depending on the variety and ripeness of the pear used.
