Peras al Vino - Pears in Wine, a Spanish Dessert for Autumn

Peras al Vino is a Spanish dessert that is simple, elegant and easy! A new crop of pears has made their appearance in produce markets, so now is a great time to try out this recipe. After peeling the pears, let them slowly simmer in a sugar and white wine mixture on the stove top for an hour. In the meantime, you can be preparing the rest of dinner.

We recommend this dessert for your the next holiday party or family get-together. Make it ahead and refrigerate until you are ready to serve!

Tip: If you have leftover wine sauce, don't let it go to waste - pour it over vanilla ice cream.
