Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Using a measuring spoon, scoop out the seeds and tough centre of the pears. Place each half on a baking sheet (skin down), sprinkle with cinnamon, and drizzle with honey. Bake until soft and slightly brown. About 30 minutes, depending on their ripeness. If the pears are finished before the French Toast, place them somewhere they will keep warm.

In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.

In a wide bowl, combine the eggs, milk, and cinnamon sugar. Whisk well.

When the pears are approximately 15 minutes from finished…

Place a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, melt 1 tbsp of butter. Working in batches, coat each slice of bread in batter, and place in the pan. If you’re able to fit more than 2 slices at a time, consider adding a bit more butter. Once the slices are golden brown and ready to flip, add a second tbsp of butter, and continue frying the other side. Adjust the heat if necessary. When both sides are finished, transfer the slices somewhere to keep warm, and repeat the whole process until finished.

For extra richness, top each slice with some butter before drizzling with syrup, and serve 2 slices with half a pear.

Enjoy!
