Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 228, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 September 1915 — Baked Pears. [ARTICLE]

Baked Pears.

Pare and core, without dividing, as many pears as you wish; place them in a pan and fill centers of pears with brown sugar. Add a little water and let them bake until perfectly tender. Serve with sweet cream or boiled custard.

An old-fashioned way is to place pears in a covered baking dish, without paring. Add one very small cupful of molasses to every two quarts of pears; but little water is necessary. Bake about two hours. If you wish, you may pare and core them, using one small cupful of sugar instead of molasses. ___ - '!£,
