Hibiscus Poached Pears with Stovetop Granola

Can be served on top whipped cream, yogurt, or whatever you desire! Perfect for breakfast or a light dessert.

I served these poached pears with coconut whipped cream, tahini miso honey (just the sauce) and stovetop granola.

Ingredients: (Poached Pears)

• 2 qt water

• 1 C coconut water

• 1 cinnamon stick

• 3 cloves

• Splash orange blossom water

• 1/4 C agave

• 1/2 C dried hibiscus flowers

• 4 pears, peeled, halved, and cored

Ingredients: (Granola)

• 2 Tbsp coconut oil

• 1/2 C oats

• 2 Tbsp maple syrup

• Dash of cardamom

• Dash of cinnamon

Method:

1. Bring water to a simmer. Add coconut water, cinnamon stick, cloves, orange blossom water, agave, hibiscus, and pears. Simmer until the pears are soft, about 5-15 minutes.

2. To make stovetop granola, heat coconut oil on a small skillet. Add oats, maple syrup, cardamom, and cinnamon. Mix to combine and cook on low heat for 5 minutes or until oats are golden.

*Optional: serve with whipped cream, ice cream, yogurt, or my tahini miso honey! (pictured)
