Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Pears
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Slice the pears in half lengthwise and remove the cores with a small spoon or a melon baller.
Brush the cut sides of the pears with lemon juice to prevent browning.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil and vanilla extract and lightly brush this mixture onto the pears.
Place the pears cut side down on the preheated grill.
Grill the pears for about 3-5 minutes on each side until they are soft and have visible grill marks.
While the pears are grilling, combine the honey, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until well mixed and warm.
Once the pears are grilled, remove them from the grill and place them on a serving plate.
Drizzle the warm honey cinnamon mixture over the grilled pears.
Serve each pear half with a dollop of Greek yogurt on the side.
Optionally, sprinkle chopped nuts over the pears for added texture and flavor.
