Vanilla Pear Compote

This is based on the recipe of Two Red Bowls, which she featured on her Instagram feed a week ago. When I saw the photo, I really wanted to make it, too. I remembered the canned sliced pears I had left over from my Masala Chai Pear Scones of a couple days before. So, I took the pears, added some water, and then added brown sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (I also added a little cardamom), and simmered as directed. It was a great way to jazz up my leftover pears, and hopefully I'll get to try it again some time soon, with fresh pears!

Masala Chai Pear Scone

This recipe is from a Binjal's Veg Kitchen recipe. I added about 1/2 tsp baking soda, just to be on the safe side with the yogurt included in the scones. Canned sliced pears made measuring and chopping the fruit, a breeze. After they were baked and cooled, I enjoyed a scone or two for dinner. Delicious!
