Quick and Easy Recipe for Pears in Hot Buttered Rum. This tasty Pears in Hot Buttered Rum Sauce recipe can be made in 15 minutes. Perfect holiday dessert.

 

This dessert while it sounds and looks a little high brow and complicated to make is actually very simple and takes about 15 minutes start to finish.   Impress your dinner guests with your culinary skills or treat your family after Sunday supper.  Pears are a wonderful lightly flavored fruit that take on and enhance what flavors they are paired with-and if you ask me butter and rum belong together.  If you want to get really crazy swap out some of the pears for your favorite cooking apple since they work so well together. You can serve this just as it is hot from the pan, or use it to top ice cream, pound cake, or sprinkle toasted walnuts on top to bump it up a notch.

    I’ve never had hot buttered rum, but I’ve always been intrigued with the idea of it. This dessert sounds like pears in a delicious caramel sauce. Yum! Pinning for sure.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
