  • 4 medium ripe, but firm pears
  • 2 tablespoons stevia mixed with 2 tbsp water

  • 2 tsp. cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix the water, stevia, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a large bowl to create a syrup.  Halve and core the pears and gently toss them in the maple syrup mixture.
  2. Arrange the pears cut-side down in the baking dish.  Pour any remaining syrupy mixture over the top and pour the water into the bottom of the pan.
