Ingredients
Pears: Look for ripe, fresh pears for the best flavor.
Cinnamon: This adds warmth and spice, enhancing the sweetness.
Nutmeg: Optional, but great for depth of flavor.
Allulose or erythritol: Keto-friendly sweetener for sweetness without carbs.
Vanilla extract: Optional, but adds a lovely aroma.
Lemon juice: Helps preserve color and balance sweetness.
Instructions
Start by washing your pears thoroughly. Peel them, remove the cores, and chop them into small pieces.
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped pears, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and your choice of sweetener. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pears begin to soften (about 10-15 minutes).
Once the pears are soft, add in cinnamon and nutmeg to taste. Using an immersion blender, puree the mixture until smooth, then return it to the heat and simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes.
Allow the pear butter to cool before transferring it to a glass jar. Enjoy right away or after a day in the fridge for deeper flavors.
