  • 1 knob butter
  • Powdered sugar, for serving

  2. 2

    Wash the pears, cut them in half, and carefully remove the core and seeds.

    Place them in a baking dish, cut side up. Sprinkle with vanilla sugar and a pinch of cinnamon, then add a few small knobs of butter.

    Meanwhile, coarsely chop the pecans and toast them for a few minutes in a skillet without any fat.

    As soon as they come out of the oven, place a generous spoonful of pear-chocolate-hazelnut jam in the center of each pear half while it’s still warm.

    Sprinkle with roasted pecans.
