Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a small baking dish.

  2. Wash the pears, cut them in half lengthwise, and use a melon baller or small spoon to scoop out the core and seeds.

  3. Place the pear halves cut-side up in the prepared baking dish. Brush the exposed flesh with melted butter and drizzle evenly with maple syrup.

  4. Sprinkle the ground cinnamon generously over each pear half, ensuring they are well coated.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pears are tender when pierced with a fork and caramelized at the edges.

  6. While the pears bake, mix the vanilla extract into the Greek yogurt.

  7. Remove the warm pears from the oven, top each half with chopped walnuts, and serve immediately with a generous dollop of vanilla Greek yogurt on the side.
