Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained pineapple chunks, peach slices, pear slices, and maraschino cherries. Gently toss them together to evenly distribute the fruit.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
Once the butter has melted, whisk in the brown sugar and curry powder until fully combined, creating a smooth glaze.
Pour the curry-butter mixture evenly over the fruit in the mixing bowl, gently tossing to coat all the pieces.
Transfer the fruit mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the fruit is heated through and the glaze is bubbling.
Serve the hot curried fruit immediately as a warm side dish or as a topping for vanilla ice cream or pound cake.
