For Pear Butter:
- Add all ingredients to a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low.
- Place a lid over the top, leaving a crack for steam to escape, and simmer for about 45 minutes, until it has reduced slightly and thickened. Keep an eye on it and stir occasionally so it doesn’t burn.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a food processor or blender.
- Pulse until it’s as smooth as you wish (it can be completely smooth or you can leave it chunky).
- Transfer to jars or other containers, seal, and refrigerate until ready to use. Keep for up to a week.
- Note: Pear butter can be frozen for up to a year.
For Waffles:
- Preheat waffle iron.
- Whisk eggs until homogeneous. Whisk in flour, milk, oil, sugar, baking powder, salt and vanilla, just until smooth.
- Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron.
- Cook according to manufacturer instructions. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Top with Stemilt D’Anjou Pear Butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
