Ingredients

6 Pears
1/2 cup Packed brown sugar
1/3 cup Maple syrup
1 tbs Butter, melted
1 tsp Grated orange peel
1/8 tsp Ground ginger
1 tbs Cornstarch
2 tbs Orange juice

Preparation

Peel pears. Core pears from bottom, leaving stems attached. Place pears upright in your crockpot.

Mix remaining ingredients except cornstarch and orange juice; pour over pears. Cover and cook on high heat setting 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until tender.

Remove pears from cooker; place upright in serving dish or individual dessert dishes.

Mix cornstarch and orange juice; stir into sauce in cooker. Cover and cook on high heat setting about 10 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Spoon sauce over pears.

For a honey of a pear, use 1/4 cup honey instead of the maple syrup for a sweet change of pace.
