A no-fuss dessert that feels like something special.
1 Place pears in a pan large enough to fit them snugly, and add enough water to just cover. Scrape seeds from vanilla beans and add seeds and beans to pan. Add honey, sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon zest, lemon juice and apple juice. Place over medium-high heat and bring to the boil.
2 Reduce heat, cover and gently poach pears at a gentle simmer for 10-15 minutes until just cooked. Allow to cool in the liquid.
3 Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine yoghurt, cinnamon and half of the ginger.
4 Remove pears with a slotted spoon. Place pan back on high heat to bring cooking liquid to a rapid boil. Reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened. Serve 2 pear halves each with yoghurt and sauce, garnished with zest and ginger.
Make it gluten free: Check cinnamon is gluten free.
Make it vegan: Use maple syrup instead of honey and use a non-dairy yoghurt alternative.
