  I tried substituting honey for the maple syrup and it was really nice! I also added some prunes with the cranberries - I think any dried fruit would be a great addition/substitution.

  Love this recipe for using up pears so quick and very tasty. I have used raisins and walnuts when I have not had cranberries or pecans and equally as tastey. A firm favourite.

  Lovely: I have made this twice now and its a fabulously simple, quick and delicious dessert. I also used tinned pears and drizzled most of the syrup from the tin over them as well just before baking and this gave a lovely, sticky sauce to spoon over the icecream I served with it.

  Unbelievably easy and quick. Looks sophisticated. Tastes delicious. Didn't have cranberries so used a snack pack of dried fruit and it worked out just fine.
