Directions
Cut the pears in half and scooping out the seeds with a melon baller. If your pears are on the firm side, slice them thinlyβabout 1/8 inch thick. For softer pears, go a bit thicker, around 1/4 inch.

Once your cinnamon cream cheese is ready, serve it alongside the pear slices for a simple and delicious treat.
How To Serve It Best
Serve chilled for a refreshing contrast between the cool cream cheese and sweet pears. This pairing works well on its own or alongside crunchy nuts, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of granola for extra texture.
How To Freeze This Dish
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The pears may soften over time, so itβs best to enjoy within 1-2 days for optimal freshness. Keep the cream cheese mixture separate if possible to maintain texture.
