Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Pears in Amaretto Cream.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, take a 9-inch baking dish and lovingly grease it with a tablespoon of softened butter.
Step 3
To add a touch of sweetness, sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar evenly over the buttered surface, creating a delightful base for your pears.
Step 4
Next, grab your pear halves and rub the remaining tablespoon of butter onto their cut sides.
Step 5
Place the pears cut-side down in the prepared baking dish, and don’t forget to sprinkle the rest of the sugar over them for that extra caramelized goodness.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, combine heavy whipping cream with amaretto liqueur, mixing them together until they’re perfectly blended.
Step 7
Once your oven is ready, pop the pears in and bake them for about 10 minutes.
Step 8
After that, pour the creamy amaretto mixture over the pears and let them bake for another 15 minutes, or until they’re tender and fragrant.
Step 9
The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Enjoy the delicious results of your efforts!.
