Spiced Unsweetened Pear Sauce
We all know and love applesauce--synonymous with autumn and feel-good fall recipes. What about pear sauce? What about a different fruit being the star? Let me tell you, in pear season, these ROCK as a stand-in for our longtime apple friends.
I make mine without any added sugar, because I like the inherent sweet from the pears. However, you can add brown sugar, maple syrup, or a bit of honey to to the cooking process if you like a little extra, which is also remarkable in flavor!
This is so simple to make and I loved playing with the spices here. I tried a couple different versions and the recipe below was my favorite of the two. If you don't like any of the spices used, feel free to swap in or out and enjoy. Even simply cinnamon would be amazing. Next up...subbing in some pear sauce in batter for some morning muffins :)
Note on type of pear to use: I used Bosc, but bartlett, d'anjou and others would also be great. It does not really matter, go for what looks most ripe and most in-season.
