A classic French dessert, poached pears (or “poire belle Hélène”) may seem intimidating to take on in the kitchen – especially when they’re wrapped in fancy agave-glazed puff pastry. So, we decided to break things down for you in an easy-peasy way so you can make a batch at home! This vegan-friendly recipe yields four warm and flaky pastry-covered pears with enhanced flavor from maple syrup, ginger, cinnamon and vanilla. Enjoy one of these golden treats with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream.
