  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 pinch sea salt, optional
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. Transfer mixture to prepared baking sheet, making sure all the seasonings are added to the pears. Bake for 10 minutes, stir with spatula and rotate pan and bake an additional 10 minutes until golden brown at the edges and tender when pierced with the tip of a knife.
