It's fall and there are a lot of overripe pears around, so make this incredibly easy pear sauce to enjoy. Day-old, ugly, ripe pears that you would never eat are great for this recipe. I like to add cinnamon, but I encourage people to make their own creations.
Ingredients
- 10 ripes pears - peeled , cored, and chopped, or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon water , or as needed
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 pinches ground cinnamon
Instructions
-
1
Combine pears and water in a pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until pears begin to break down, about 25 minutes. Stir lemon juice and cinnamon into pears.
-
2
Use an immersion blender to blend pears until smooth or to desired consistency.
