Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Arrange the pears cut side up in an 8-inch square glass baking dish. Whisk the apple juice and sugar in a small heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the butter. Pour the sauce over the pears. Bake until the pears are crisp-tender and beginning to brown, basting occasionally with the juices, about 35 minutes.
- Spoon the pears onto plates. Top with ice cream. Drizzle with any juices and serve.
- The pears can also be served frozen. To do so, cool the pears, then place them in the freezer until frozen solid, about 8 hours.
ROASTED APPLES
Roasted apples recall homemade applesauce but don't require a turn through a food mill.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add apples, and toss to coat. Spread apples in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, tossing halfway through, until tender but firm, 30 to 35 minutes.
ROASTED APPLES WITH CALVADOS AND CINNAMON ICE CREAM
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise down the center, and use a paring knife to scrape the seeds and pulp into the butter. To make sure not to lose any of the seeds, run your vanilla-coated knife through the butter. Add the vanilla pod to the pan, and cook the butter and vanilla over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the butter browns and smells nutty. Remove from the heat, and discard the vanilla pod.
- Cut the apples in half through the core, and carefully remove the core and seeds with a paring knife (or, for a more dramatic presentation, leave the core and stems intact). Toss the apples in a large bowl with the sugars, brown butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, Calvados, and salt. Arrange the apples, cut side up, in a roasting pan. Top each half with the remaining sugar mixture from the mixing bowl.
- Bake the apples about 40 minutes, basting them with the pan juices every 10 minutes, until the flesh has pulled away from the skin and the apples are tender and carmelized.
- Arrange the warm apples on a large platter, and pour all the remaining juices over them. Serve with cinnamon ice cream and glasses of Calvados.
- Cinnamon Ice Cream
- Place the milk, cream, cinnamon sticks, and ground cinnamon in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn off the heat, cover, and let the flavors infuse about 30 minutes.
- Bring the mixture back to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat.
- Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl. Whisk a few tablespoons of the warm cream mixture into the yolks to temper them. Slowly, add another 1/4 cup or so of the warm cream, whisking to incorporate. At this point, you can add the rest of the cream mixture in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly. Pour the mixture back into the pot and return to the stove.
- Cook the custard over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring with a rubber spatula, scraping the bottom and sides of the pan. The custard will thicken, and when it's done will coat the back of the spatula. Strain it and chill at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. The base should be very cold before you churn it. Process in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Note
- I like to leave some of the cores and stems intact-the apples are a little harder to eat, but so beautiful that way.

Roast the apples until tender, tossing once, about 20 minutes. Ladle some of the syrup onto each of 4 plates. Scoop the ice cream into 4 neat rounds and place on the plates.

Steps:
- Preheat a medium skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Peel and quarter the apples. Core each quarter. Slice the apples up. Add butter to the skillet, then apples. Saute 7 or 8 minutes, add sugar, cinnamon and cloves and cook 2 minutes more. Spoon the sauteed apples into dessert dishes and top with ice cream, whipped cream, and garnish with grated nutmeg.
APPLES WITH CALVADOS AND ICE CREAM
Steps:
- Peel the apples, and cut them into 12 slices, making sure to remove the cores and stems. There should be about 4 cups.
- Melt the butter in a skillet, and add the apple slices and the lemon peel. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, and cook over medium-high heat, gently stirring the apples and shaking the skillet so that they cook evenly. When the apples start to brown, add the Calvados. Turn up the heat, and tilt the pan. Then ignite the sauce with a long match. (The alcohol will burn off quickly.) Blend well.
- Put a scoop of ice cream into each of four individual serving dishes. Pour the apples on top and serve.
