We have a confession to make.  We actually made this recipe a few months ago, but we were afraid to post it on our website until now.  We live in south Florida where it’s grilling season year round, but we didn’t want to rub it in our Northern follower’s faces that we were enjoying the outdoors while many of you were stuck indoors.  So as we approach summer again, we wanted to dust off this recipe and give you all some good grilling ideas for the next few months. 

Caramelized fruit and ice cream can be a deadly combination (in more ways than one).  It tastes so good that you can’t stop eating it, but usually it leaves us feeling the effects later on.  This combination is just as good, but without the nasty food hangover that follows. 

Ingredients:

1-2 Pears (the more ripe, the better)

2 Tablespoons Nikki’s Coconut Butter Vanilla Cake Batter Flavor

Sprinkle of Cinnamon

Directions:

-Cut 3 large slices off of each pair and discard the core and stem.

-Place the slices on a grill on medium heat.  Grill each side for about 3-5 minutes or until the pears appear to caramelize on the outside.   

-Place the grilled pear slices in a small bowl and add 2 big tablespoons of Vanilla Cake Batter on top.  We like to microwave Nikki’s Coconut Butter before serving for that extra creamy texture but the heat from the pears will also make the coconut butter creamier.
