Pears in Blankets

Pre-heat the oven to 200°C/Gas Mark 6.

Cut the pears into quarters, lengthways, and remove any pips.

Using a knife, stretch out the bacon rashers on a chopping board and cut each rasher in half.

Wrap each pear segment with a slice of bacon and secure with a cocktail stick.

Place onto a baking tray and drizzle over the maple syrup.

Roast in the oven for 15 minutes and serve immediately.
