Chef Thea's poached pear granola
You will need...
- 40g Mindful Chef Pecan, Coconut and Chia Granola
- 1 conference pear
- 1 orange
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 star anise
- 1 vanilla pod, cut in half and seeds scraped out
- 40g coconut yoghurt
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
How to make it...
- Peel your pear and halve lengthways. Use a spoon to scrape out the core.
- Pop in a pan with 100ml water and the juice from the orange, then add in the cinnamon, star anise and seeds from the vanilla pod.
- Bring to the boil for 5 mins, then gently simmer for 15 mins until softened.
- Remove your pear and set aside in a bowl to cool. Return your pan to the heat and boil until your sauce starts to reduce (but is still runny).
- Pour the sauce onto the pear. Top with a handful of Mindful Chef granola, some coconut yoghurt, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
