The sweetness of the pear pairs wonderfully with the savory, crispy bacon, creating a flavor explosion in every bite. Plus, they are incredibly easy to make!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the pears thoroughly, then cut each pear into quarters.
- Remove the core and seeds from each quarter with a small knife or a corer.
- Take a strip of bacon and start wrapping it around each pear quarter, beginning at one end and working towards the other. Secure the bacon with a toothpick if needed.
- Repeat this process until each pear quarter is wrapped.
- Place the bacon-wrapped pears on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly to allow the bacon to crisp up.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is cooked through and nicely crisped.
- While the pears are baking, in a small saucepan over low heat, warm the maple syrup until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. This takes about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to burn the syrup.
- Once the bacon-wrapped pears are done baking, remove them from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Drizzle the warm maple glaze over the bacon-wrapped pears while they are still on the baking sheet or arrange them on a serving platter and then drizzle the glaze over them.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose ripe but firm pears to ensure they hold their shape during cooking.
- Use high-quality, nitrate-free bacon to keep the dish as healthy as possible.
- Make sure to secure the bacon with a toothpick to prevent it from unwrapping while baking.
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the pears before wrapping them in bacon.
These Paleo bacon-wrapped pears with a maple glaze are not only delicious but also simple to prepare, making them a perfect addition to any gathering or a tasty treat for yourself. With the combination of sweet pears and savory bacon, this dish is sure to impress everyone. Enjoy them hot out of the oven for the perfect balance of flavors and textures!
