A delicious, easy and elegant dessert that's perfect for winter. Any variety of pear will work well. 4 servings Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
4 pears, halved, cored and peeled
1/2 cup sour cream 1/4 cup coarsely chopped toasted almonds Directions:
Adjust oven rack to center position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Place butter in a baking pan large enough to hold the pears in a single layer and set in the heating oven until it melts. Sprinkle sugar over melted butter, then place pears, cut side down, on top. Bake until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove pan from oven, turn pears over and baste with pan sauce.
