Pear recipes

One of autumn’s many bounties, pears are endless in their uses. Our collection of pear recipes includes plenty of delicious sweet and savoury dishes.

Porridge with pears and almond butter gets chilly mornings off to a great start. Pear, apple and cider muffins are brilliant for on-the-go days and lunchboxes (swap the cider for apple juice to make them kid-friendly).

Looking for a pear dessert? Easy but striking poached pears are always a winner. Take it to the next level with our mulled pears served three ways, a perfect alternative to stodgy festive puds. Try our ever-popular upside-down pear cake, easy rustic pear pie or – when you want to seriously impress –try this stunning pear, bay and blackberry pavlova.

Pears also bring subtle sweetness and balance to savoury dishes. Check out our pear and blue cheese soufflé or lemongrass, beef, pear and chicory salad.
