🍐🍯 Hot Honey Roasted Pears with Whittaker’s Manuka Honey & Pear Chocolate Drizzle

Fall calls for cozy flavors …  sweet, juicy pears, rich chocolate, and just the right touch of heat. This dessert is simple, elegant, and a total showstopper for dinner parties or a quiet night in. Plus, it’s built around I AM Hot Honey and the dreamy Whittaker’s Manuka Honey & Pear Chocolate.

Ingredients (Serves 4)

• 4 ripe but firm pears (e.g., Bosc or Anjou)
• 3 tbsp I AM Hot Honey (plus extra for drizzling)
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt
• 100g Whittaker’s Manuka Honey & Pear Chocolate, chopped
• 2 tbsp cream or coconut cream (for melting chocolate)
• Optional: chopped roasted walnuts or almonds for crunch
• Optional: vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt for serving

Instructions

1. Prep the pears: Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Halve pears lengthwise and scoop out the core with a spoon.
2. Mix the glaze: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, I AM Hot Honey, cinnamon, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
3. Roast: Place pears cut-side up in a baking dish. Brush with the hot honey glaze, letting it pool slightly in the hollowed center. Roast for 25–30 minutes, basting with the pan juices halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
4. Chocolate drizzle: While pears roast, gently melt the Whittaker’s Manuka Honey & Pear Chocolate with cream in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or in 20-second microwave bursts. Stir until smooth.
5. Assemble: Plate warm pears, drizzle generously with melted chocolate and extra I AM Hot Honey, and sprinkle with roasted nuts. Serve with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt if desired.
