Makes 2 servings

2 small ripe pears

¼ cup sugar

1 Tbsp vanilla extract

2 chai tea bags

Garnish: Pure maple syrup

Peel the pears, leaving the stem intact.

Place the pears in a small saucepan with the sugar, vanilla and tea bags and add enough water to cover pears. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Simmer 5 more minutes if your pears are firm.

Drain the pears and let cool slightly. Serve warm over steel-cut oatmeal or vanilla ice cream. Garnish with syrup.
