White Wine–Poached Pears with Vanilla
| By : |
Poached pears are an easy but impressive dessert that you can prepare up to two days ahead of time. This recipe uses lighter and fruitier white wine along with a vanilla bean and spices to flavor the pears. Serve warm, cold, or at room temperature, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Instructions
- Add the wine and sugar to the Instant Pot and stir until dissolved.
- Add the pears, cinnamon stick, cloves, vanilla bean pod, and lemon.
- Secure the lid. Select the Manual function and cook at high pressure for 8 minutes.
- Once cooking is complete, use a natural release. For best results, store the pears in their cooking liquid overnight before proceeding.
- Remove the pears and set aside.
- Remove the spices and all but 2 cups of liquid. Select Sauté function and cook the sauce until reduced by half, or 5 to 10 minutes.
- Serve the pears drizzled with the sauce. Enjoy!

Tasted too much like wine right out of the pot.
After a day or 2 in the fridge it was much better. I’d recommend making in advance.
