Roasted pears and apples make an amazing and heartwarming winter dessert. When I was little I used to eat a lot of steamed apples, they were one of my favorite things, however I haven't had any in a very-very-very long time, until today.
The other day while shopping at an Asian Mart I spotted those huge Korean pears and couldn't resist buying some. At the time I didn't know what I would use it for, but I am glad I didn't just eat it since this is what happens to most of fruits and veggies I buy.
Luckily, I had some ricotta cheese in the fridge so that this amazing idea came to mind to combine the two!
Ingredients:
- 1 Korean pear (cores removed, cut into wedges);
- maple syrup or honey;
- roasted walnuts;
- ricotta cheese.
Directions:
Wash, deseed and cut the pear into 4 wedges and bake it for approximately 30 minutes at 350 F.
Fill the plate with a couple scoops or ricotta cheese and pear wedges, sprinkle roasted walnuts or any other kind of nuts on top. Finish it off with honey or maple syrup drizzles.
