How to Make Simple Roasted Pears

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Gently grease an 8-cup baking dish or a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter.
  3. Core 4 ripe but firm pears, leaving them unpeeled. Cut each pear in half lengthwise.
  4. Arrange the pear halves cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice evenly over the pears.
  6. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the pears are tender and their juices are bubbling.
  7. While the pears are baking, toast 1/4 cup of slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and lightly browned.
  8. Remove the pears from the oven and let them cool slightly in the baking dish.
  9. Serve warm, sprinkled with the toasted almonds.
