Make bourbon glaze
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together Woodford Reserve Double Oaked, brown sugar, maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve sugar, and reduce for about 4–6 minutes until slightly thickened.

Roast pears
Arrange pear halves in the baking dish, cavity side up. Lightly drizzle with a portion of the glaze and add 1/4 cup water to the dish to help keep pears moist.

Bake and baste
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until pears are tender but still hold together. Baste pears with remaining glaze halfway through baking to deepen flavor.

Serve
Let pears rest 5 minutes. Plate with roasted pears, spoon more warm glaze over, and serve with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream.
