Stewed Pears (Dairy, Gluten/Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

Pear season is fast approaching.  One of my favourite pear dishes is a simple stewed pears.  This recipe is great served warm or cold, right from the fridge.  I am sure this would also taste great with some Coconut Whipped Cream on top.

Ingredients (serves 4)

• 5 ripe pears sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon gluten free vanilla
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup if vegan
• 1 tablespoon psyllium husk (optional to thicken syrup)

Directions

1. Add all ingredients to a medium size sauce pan.
2. Bring to a boil and turn to simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Serve warm or cold.
