INGREDIENTS
- 3 lbs pears
- ½ cup(s) lemon juice juice of 2 lemons
- 1 cup(s) water
- ⅓ cup(s) maple syrup
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
- Mix in pot the water, the maple syrup, the lemon juice and the spices.
- Peel and dice the pears. Put the pear dices in the pot as soon as you cut them to avoid oxidation (turning brown).
- Bring to a boil on high heat and bring down to medium heat for around 15 minutes, or until the pears are tender under the fork.
- Put aside let it cool down at least 10 minutes.
- Turn the pears into puree with a hand mixer, a blender or a food processor until very smooth.
