Easy Pear Mash – Leftovers can be frozen

2 ripe organic pears

1/4 cup water

Directions

Peel pears with a peeler and remove the core that contains the stem and seeds. If pear is ripe enough (soft when pushed with finger), place chopped pear into a food processor or blender and pulse until smooth, adding a few tablespoons of water to thin the pear puree out.

*If pear is not soft to the touch, roughly chop it up and place into a small sauce pan with just enough water to cover the tops of the chopped pears. Cook for 8-10 minutes, covered, until pears are nice and soft. Drain off part of the water, reserving half for blending.

Place cooked pears into a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth, adding some of the reserved liquid to thin out the puree.

Let cool before serving.
