Spiced Pear with Berry Cream
Ingredients:
1 ripe pear, halved or quartered, and cored
1 tsp coconut oil
1 tsp brown sugar or maple syrup
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground ginger
1 small strip of orange peel
50ml The Kefir Co Berry Coconut Water Kefir
3 tbsp thick coconut yoghurt or Greek yoghurt
1 tsp honey or maple syrup
Small handful of fresh or frozen berries, to serve
Toasted almond flakes or a crumble of gingernut, to finish
Method:
- Heat the coconut oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the pears cut side down along with the sugar, cinnamon, ginger and orange peel. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until golden and softened, spooning the syrup over as it cooks.
- Lift the pears onto a plate or into a shallow bowl. Set aside to cool for a few minutes so the kefir cream doesn't split.
- While the pears cool, stir the yoghurt and honey together in a small bowl until smooth. Gently mix in the Berry Coconut Water Kefir until you have a soft, pourable cream.
- Spoon the kefir cream over and around the cooled pears. Scatter with fresh berries and finish with toasted almonds or crumbled gingernut.
Could also swap the pears for feijoa, or a baked apple.
