Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe pears
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup pecans
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray.
Peel and core the pears, then slice them into quarters. Arrange the pear slices in an even layer at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Stir in the brown sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and bubbling slightly. Pour this caramel mixture over the pears, making sure to cover them evenly.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, chopped pecans, cinnamon, and salt. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter into small pieces and work it into the dry mixture using your fingers or a pastry cutter until crumbly.
Sprinkle the praline topping evenly over the pears and caramel mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are tender when pierced with a fork.
Allow the pudding to cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy it on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
