I use Bartlett pears because that is what we grow. You can use whatever you can get in your area because all pears will make a fine and Perfect Pear Butter
|
|
|
I peel my pears - it saves a lot of time and effort straining the fruit from the skins
|
|
|
Just cover the bottom of the pan with fresh water, then slowly soften the quartered pears over a medium heat
|
|
|
Combine the orange juice, zest, sweetener and nutmeg in a separate bowl
|
|
|
Puree the pears to a smooth consistency
|
|
|
Add the orange sauce to the pureed pears
|
|
|
Slowly simmer the pears to evapoate as much liquid as possible and reduce to a buttery consistency. You will know thick when you see it. Just don't scorch the product - constant stirring is the key!

When you drop a small dollop of a fruit butter on a room temperature plate and it doesn't 'weep' or run, but stands up like a Hersey's Kiss - you are THERE!
