Pearsauce! I have made applesauce for years for my family. I was looking at the bowl of pears that sat on my counter and thought, hmmm, pearsauce! This was my first attempt at making it and my family loves it! I peeled and diced the pears and slowly simmered it on the stove. When I added the spices to it, the whole house smelled yummy! Pearsauce is great on toast or just in a bowl for breakfast. I hope you will try this recipe and enjoy it, too!
