Method
Preparation
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced pears, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Toss gently to coat the pears evenly with the mixture.
Cook the Filling
Transfer the pear mixture to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pears start to soften and release their juices. Remove from heat and let cool.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pears are bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Serve
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
