    CASSIS AND BAY BAKED PEARS WITH BLACKBERRIES

    Pears are the most adaptable, well-behaved, rewarding fruits for autumn and winter puddings. Their flesh really sucks up other flavours, red wine, Marsala, cinnamon, star anise or whatever else you choose. This is best made the day before serving.
