Ingredients

4 small ripe pears peeled, halved and cored (approx. 500g)
3 tbsp soft brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ lemon, juiced
150g porridge oats
500ml whole milk
2 tbsp runny honey, plus extra to serve (optional)
50g hazelnuts, chopped
Greek yogurt, to serve

Steps:

Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the pears with the sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice in a roasting tin. Roast for 15 mins or until softened and sticky. Set aside.
Tip the oats into a medium-sized ceramic dish. Pour the milk and honey into a saucepan and stir over a medium heat until warm. Pour over the oats and mix together. Nestle in the roasted pear and scatter over the hazelnuts. Bake for 30 mins until golden and firm. Serve with yogurt and an extra drizzle of honey, if you like.
