Pear Sauce - Super simple recipe for extra ripe fruit




 

Ingredients:
6-7 small pears (extra ripe)
1 tsp cinnamon
Dash of lemon juice

Directions:
Remove stems and seeds from all pears, leaving the skins on.  Quarter the pears and place in a crock pot.  Cook on low for about 2 hours.  Once the pears are cooked, put them in the blender jar with the cinnamon and a tiny dash of lemon juice.  Start blending on low and gradually increase to high.  Total blending time is about 1-2 minutes.  Put the pear sauce in a jar and refrigerate.  Use within a couple of days.

I like the recipe when I have pears or apples that are bruised or getting too ripe.  The kids love it.  This is perfect for a small batch of overripe fruit so that you make good use of it and create less waste.
