Caramel Pears

The summer weather in Melbourne is crazy at the moment, it can go from 30 degrees one day to 17 a couple of days later.  Its those cold snaps that make me crave some comfort food and I got this quick and easy recipe from The Failsafe Cookbook.

Caramel Pears (Low Chem)

  • 10 pear halves in syrup cut in half again or 5 fresh pears, peeled, cored and quartered
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tblspn golden syrup

  2. Place the pear quarters in the bottom of the greased dish.
  3. Combine the sugar, golden syrup, butter, flour and water and whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour over the pears and bake uncovered for 1 hour.
