Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pounds of ripe pears, peeled, cored, and diced (about 8 medium pears)
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar, preferably dark for deeper flavor
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust based on pear sweetness)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Instructions

  • Peel, core, and dice the pears into roughly 1-inch chunks. For smoother butter, chop smaller or mash slightly before cooking.
  • Place the diced pears in the crockpot. Add water, brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and spices.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, stirring every few hours to prevent sticking and help even cooking.
  • When the pears are tender and liquid has reduced, use an immersion blender to puree the mixture to your desired texture.
  • Turn the crockpot to high and cook uncovered for 30-60 minutes, stirring frequently until the pear butter thickens to your liking.
  • Allow the pear butter to cool completely before transferring into sterilized jars or airtight containers.
  • Notes

    A warm, rustic, and perfectly sweet homemade pear butter made easily in a slow cooker. Great on toast, oatmeal or ice cream, this recipe balances sweetness and spice while highlighting the natural pear flavor.
