Steps:
- Prep: Preheat oven to 400F. Line a 10"x7" or a 9"x9" baking dish with parchment paper if you prefer easier cleanup, or spray it with nonstick spray. If doubling the recipe use a 9"x13" baking dish or any other rimmed baking dish that will fit pears snugly to each other (see Note 1 at the bottom).
- Peel & Core: If using a firm pear variety like Bosc, peel them. Remove the core with a melon baller or a small spoon. Leave the stems on for better visual appeal. If you're using softer pears like Anjou, keep the skin on to help them keep the shape as they bake.
- Add toppings: Set the pears cut side up inside the pan. Drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning. Sprinkle with brown sugar mixed with nutmeg and cinnamon (if using). Arrange the cubed pieces of butter on top of the pears. Drizzle with vanilla extract.
- Bake for 30 minutes cut side up. Turn the pears cut side down. Spoon the caramel over the tops to prevent browning. Bake for another 20-50 minutes or until the pears are soft, and the caramel is thickened. The pears will shrink consierably if baked until the caramel is very thick.Bosc pears will take the longest to achieve the candied translucent look and caramelized taste. Other more delicate pear varieties will take less time to soften (Note 2 & 3).
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, yogurt, sour cream, or a sprinkle of roasted walnuts or sliced almonds. Spoon the caramel over the pears.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Fill a large bowl with cold water, and squeeze the juice from the lemon quarters directly into the water; add the rinds. Slice pears 3/8 inch thick; add to acidulated water.
- In a medium saucepan, bring the milk to a boil. Meanwhile, whisk sugar, eggs, egg yolks, and brandy in a large bowl until the batter leaves a ribbonlike trail on the surface for 3 seconds when you raise the whisk. Slowly add hot milk to egg mixture, whisking constantly, until milk has been incorporated.
- Using a slotted spoon, lift pears from the water, and blot dry with paper towels. In a 10-inch-round pie plate, arrange pears in a circular pattern. Pour milk-and-egg mixture over pears.
- Place pie plate in a shallow baking pan, and fill the pan with enough boiling water to cover the pie plate halfway up. Transfer to oven; bake until the custard has set and is just brown, about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

BONNIE'S BAKED PEARS WITH WHIPPED CREAM
I am so in love with my Air Fryer! This is the perfect appliance to bake pears. It caramelizes the pears beautifully and is so much faster than the oven. I chose simple ingredients to make my baked pears. Just butter, honey, brown sugar, and a little lime juice. It's nice to make things lively, but sometimes, too many...

Steps:
- 1. This is an Air Fryer recipe and the perfect choice for baking the pears. They caramelize perfectly. You will be baking the pears in a ceramic or metal dish large enough to fit inside the basket of your air fryer with a little space around it so the air can flow freely. A word of caution, the baking pan is hot! Once the pears are baked, leave the baking pan inside the basket, don't remove it until it has cooled.
- 2. Choose medium size firm pears. Wash the pears. Peel and cut them lengthwise and core the centers. I prefer the pears unpeeled. Melt the butter and place in the metal baking pan.
- 3. Dip the pear halves in the melted butter. Turn to coat each side with butter. Cut side up. Sprinkle with lime juice and drizzle generously with honey.
- 4. Add a pinch of salt to each pear half. Add 1 teaspoon brown sugar to each half.
- 5. Bake the pears cut side up at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, turning a time or two, then turn them over and bake 15 minutes at 330 degrees cut side down. They should be tender and brown around the edges. Turn them over to serve, adding a little more brown sugar. Let the pear halves rest in the air fryer for at least five minutes. Spoon the juices over the pears.
- 6. Using a long handle spoon, lift the pear halves into individual serving dishes and add a dollop of whipped cream to the top of each pear. Definitely do eat the pears warm. The aroma of the baking pears while baking is outstanding. Enjoy!
