Vanilla Bourbon Poached Pears

Vanilla Bourbon Poached Pears

These elegant, yet easy, Vanilla Bourbon Poached Pears are truly a show-stopper dessert. With a mix of cinnamon, vanilla bean, smoky bourbon, & fresh orange juice, you will fall in love with these spiced poached pears.

It's likely you're familiar with the term poaching from "poached eggs". However, you can actually poach so many foods! Poaching essentially means cooking food in a liquid just below the boiling point.

Poaching pears involves cooking firm pears in a flavored syrup. A lot of recipes call for poaching pears in wine. However, for this recipe, I wanted to do something a bit more unique.

Some of the inspiration for this flavor came from the super popular Pear Vanilla Gin Cocktail. Add in bourbon, orange, & cinnamon and you have a truly unique poached pear recipe!

Ingredients:
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup bourbon
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice about 1 orange juiced
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste or 1 vanilla pod sliced in half
  • 4 medium bosc pears
Prep Time:
15 minutes
Cook Time:
40 minutes
Total Time:
55 minutes
