Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 ripe pears

- 2 tbsp dried lavender

- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 4 tbsp Poire Williams liqueur
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
-
In a large saucepan, combine water, sugar, and dried lavender. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.

Peel the pears, leaving the stems intact. Place the pears in the simmering syrup and poach for 20-30 minutes or until tender.
-
Remove the pears from the syrup and set aside to cool.
-
In a separate saucepan, heat milk, cream, and Poire Williams liqueur over medium heat until steaming, but not boiling.

In a bowl, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
-
Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
-
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
-
Cut a small slice from the base of each poached pear to help them stand upright.
-
Place each pear in a serving dish and spoon the Poire Williams pudding alongside.
-
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
