If you’re craving something sweet but still want to stick to those New Year goals, then you’re going to love these Brown Butter roasted pears with Chantilly Cream.
Ingredients
For the pears:
4 Bosc pears, ripe but firm
2 tablespoons BF browned butter, melted
1 tablespoon honey, plus more for drizzling
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
pinch of salt
1/4 cup lightly salted pistachios, roughly chopped
1 BF Palmier cookie, broken into pieces
For the Chantilly cream:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°.
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
-
Slice the pears in half lengthwise then scoop out the cores.
-
Place the pears on the baking sheet cut side up.
-
In a small mixing bowl, whisk the browned butter, 1 tablespoon honey, vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt. Drizzle half of the browned butter mixture over the pears and brush over all surfaces.
-
Flip the pears over, cut side down and drizzle the remaining browned butter mixture over the tops.
-
Place the pears in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized around the edges.
-
While the pears are baking, make the Chantilly cream by mixing the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until it thickens and stiff peaks form.
-
When the pears are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 15 minutes then carefully flip them over cut side up.
-
Top the pears with a generous dollop of Chantilly cream, pistachios, and drizzled honey.
