Seckel pears are ideal for this recipe because they are small and still firm even when they are fairly ripe. For the stuffing, I like to combine almonds with figs, or walnuts with prunes, but any other combination is good too. If you use larger pears, you will need to double the stuffing.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Pour wine into a baking dish.
- Core pears carefully using an apple corer.
- Toast almonds in an ungreased pan over medium-low heat until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool.
- Combine almonds, figs, honey, and gingerbread spice in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until smooth, scraping down the sides of the food processor as needed. Spoon the stuffing into the pears and place them in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is browned and the pears are soft but not falling apart, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream.
