Seriously simple baked pears drizzled with real maple syrup.  We have enjoyed these just as they are but I’m sure they would be divine a la mode.  My kids cannot get enough of these!

Ingredients:

• 4 Pears
• 1/2 cup Maple Syrup

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400.  Peel, slice and core pears.  Place pears in a baking dish.
2. Drizzle with maple syrup.  Bake for 15 minutes.  Turn pears over and cook for 15 minutes more or until pears are tender.
