The Best Pears for Cooking

First of all, I love cooking with ripe pears. They are an excellent fruit for baking, and they make a delicious pear sauce that’s perfect on ice cream or as a topping for pancakes or waffles.

What type of pear should you use? There are many pears out there, but the best one to cook with is Bartlett Pears because they’re easy to peel and have a sweet taste.

The best pears for cooking are the ones that have a firm but not too hard texture. They should be ripe and sweet but not overly so to hold up when cooked. Look out for the following varieties: Bartlett, Bosc Pears, Red Anjou Pears, Comice, and Seckel.

How To Cut The Pears

The pear is one of the best fruits to eat when in season. It’s sweet and crunchy and can even be sliced into desserts or eaten with cheese. However, cutting up a pear can sometimes be difficult to slice them evenly without making a mess.

To perfectly slice a pear, cut lengthwise with a paring knife. Then use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the middle of the pear.

How To Serve Baked Pears:

Baked pears are a simple dessert that is perfect for those who love baked fruit. What makes them so great? They can be served with ice cream, whipped cream, or honey and never have to be cut!

Serve With My Favorite Toppings:

  • Coconut Flakes
  • A scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream
  • Drizzle of Honey
  • Greek Yogurt
  • Cinnamon Sugar
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • Vegan Butter
  • Coconut Sugar
  • Caramel Sauce
  • Chocolate Sauce
  • Sprinkle Of Granola
