Move over apple butter, and say hello to this creamy pear butter. Made like it’s… sister? Cousin? This lightly sweetened pear butter recipe can be made in the crock pot – (this is how I did it), and what I was left with was a creamy smooth pear butter, with hints of vanilla and orange.
Serve your slow cooker pear butter recipe on toast, or on a fresh bagel with cream cheese. Sweeten up your oatmeal with a dollop or two of scrumptious spread and enjoy.
