Oven Baked Pears with Lemon, Honey & Nutmeg

Though this dish has all the spices of Christmas, it is great at any time of the year. The cool yoghurt oozes over the warm pears sweetened with honey.

Ingredients

2 pots FAGE Total 0% Split Pot with Honey

2 pears, core and cut into 4 wedges

25g currants or raisins

1 tsp grated lemon zest

½ tsp ground nutmeg 

 

    Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F / 200°C / Gas Mark 6.
  2. Cut 2 sheets of foil, each about 12 square. Place 1 foil sheet on work surface. Arrange 4 pear wedges, overlapping slightly, on 1 half of foil.
  3. Take a FAGE Total 0% Honey Twinpot and drizzle half the honey over the pears. Sprinkle with half the currants, half of the lemon peel and a pinch of nutmeg.
  4. Fold foil over, enclosing contents completely and crimping edges tightly to seal.
  5. Repeat this process until you have two parcels.
  6. Place foil packets on a preheated baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
  7. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then open the tin foil parcels ‘ please be careful as the steam that come out may burn you’. Serve with FAGE Total and drizzle with the remaining honey.
