Ingredients

Main ingredients

4 pieces ripe pears Choose pears that give a little when gently pressed.
100 g feta cheese, crumbled Can substitute with goat cheese or halal cream cheese.
1/4 cup honey Drizzle over filled pears.
1/2 cup cranberries (fresh or dried) Generously sprinkle into each pear half.
1/4 cup walnuts (optional) Adds crunch and aroma.
to taste cinnamon (optional) Sprinkle on top.
to taste salt and pepper Enhances flavor.

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash the pears thoroughly and cut them in half. Use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the core, creating a small well for the filling.
Place the pear halves cut-side up in a greased baking dish.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and cranberries generously into each pear half.
Carefully drizzle honey over the filled pears.
If desired, sprinkle with walnuts and a dash of cinnamon.

Baking

Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the pears are tender and slightly caramelized on top.

Serving

Serve warm with a dash of salt and pepper to enhance flavors.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For freezing, wrap each baked pear individually and store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Reheat gently to retain texture.
