Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F. Oil a 9-by-9-inch baking dish. Slice pears in 1/4-inch-thick wedges. Arrange in rows in the baking dish.

Mix syrup and vanilla; drizzle this mixture over the pears. Sprinkle with almonds and wheat germ; dot with butter.

Bake, basting occasionally with the juices that accumulate, until pears are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
