Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grab a baking dish. Begin by gently coring and halving the pears, ensuring you leave them firm to maintain their shape while baking. Place the pear halves cut-side up in the baking dish, ready to be filled with a delicious mixture.

In a medium bowl, combine your choice of chopped nuts, honey, and cinnamon. For added sweetness and texture, consider mixing in optional dried fruits like raisins or cranberries. Stir everything together well until all ingredients are evenly coated in the honey and cinnamon—this will create a flavorful filling for your Cinnamon Stuffed Pears.

Take the prepared filling and generously spoon it into each pear half, packing the mixture snugly. Make sure each pear is well-filled to enjoy the delightful contrast between the juicy fruit and the crunchy nutty stuffing. Once filled, arrange the stuffed pears back into the baking dish, which is ready for baking.

Carefully place your filled baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes. Keep an eye on the pears—they should become tender but not overly soft or falling apart.

Once baked, remove the Cinnamon Stuffed Pears from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve them warm, optionally topped with a generous scoop of whipped cream or ice cream.
