Pack pear butter into hot, sterilized jar, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jar to remove any air bubbles.

Beat and Bake Orange Cake
This quick orange cake is delicious without the frosting. I sometimes just sprinkle icing sugar on the top. This recipe can be used to make two 8-inch cake layers or a 9x5-inch loaf. If making a loaf cake, bake for 60 minutes.
Kelly's Slow Cooker Beef, Mushroom, and Barley Soup
I came up with this slow cooker recipe for beef, barley, and mushroom soup after tinkering with a few other recipes. I've added celery and leeks before, but all it did was make the soup more chunky; it didn't really change the flavor.
Blue Cheese Popovers
I'm very excited to show you these blue cheese popovers. This is a new, and possibly slightly improved, popover recipe. While we may have tweaked the ingredient amounts a little bit, we are still going to be using our foolproof, cold-oven method for making these. The reason this technique is so fun to use is that it's literally the opposite of everything every popover expert says you should do.
