Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cut the pears in half, and remove the cores using a melon baller, or spoon.
  • Place pear halves, flesh side up, on a parchment lined baking sheet, and lightly spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with as much, or little, cinnamon as you desire.
  • Flip the pears over, so the cut side is down, and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and flip the pears so the cut side is up. Place walnuts on baking sheet, in between pears.
  • Bake pears and walnuts for another 15 minutes.
  • Place 2 pear halves and ¼ of the walnuts in each bowl, and drizzle with a few tablespoons of chocolate sauce.
