This simple, tasty pear recipe was created by Chef Jamie Lauren of Absinthe Brasserie and Bar in San Francisco and cookbook author Mollie Katzen. If you can’t find Bosc pears at your local grocery store, red or green Anjou pears also work well.

    This is one of my favorite winter desserts! These sauteed Bosc pears are so delicious in a bowl of chilled almond milk. I like to add a little dried ginger to my pears, too. So healthy and simple!
