Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ripe Bosc pears
One 12-ounce (8-roll) tube refrigerated cinnamon roll dough with icing packet, such as Pillsbury
2 tablespoons sugar
About 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  • Halve the pears lengthwise and scoop out the centers with a tablespoon to make a cavity that will fit a cinnamon roll. Cut a thin slice from the bottom of each pear half so the pears sit flat. Arrange the pears on a rimmed baking sheet and fit a cinnamon roll into each cavity. Sprinkle the pears and cinnamon rolls with the sugar.
  • Bake until the pears are tender and the cinnamon rolls are puffed and golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Empty the icing packet into a small bowl and add the lemon juice, cinnamon and cloves. Stir to make a smooth glaze.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the pears and cinnamon rolls. Serve warm.
