Caramel and Pear Pudding
Here is a lovely winter dessert that uses fresh seasonal pears. It's easy to fix and a comforting treat after any meal. I enjoy snacking on it while sitting by the fireplace. —Diane Halferty, Corpus Christi, Texas

Excellent! The descriptor “pudding” is deceiving, as it is not close to what we consider pudding. I know my husband would not eat it if I told him it was pear pudding. I just said pear dessert. Will make again!
This was so good! I doubled the recipe and put it in a 5 quart slow cooker. Make sure to use a slow cooker liner....very sticky!
Could canned pears be used in this recipe?
Everyone loved this one, it is a keeper!
What a yummy, easy to fix dessert. I put it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes since my crockpot was already in use. Came out great. Next time I'm going to double the boiling water and see if comes out more like a pudding cake
This was excellent. I served it with vanilla ice cream and it was a hit! I was worried you wouldn't be able to taste the pears but you definitely could.
Made this pudding today and it was delicious. Turned out great. I took the lid off for the last half hour of cooking so the top the top of the pudding would dry out a bit. Loved being able to put it in the crock pot. Small portions are enough as it was quite rich and filling!!!
My family went nuts for this dessert and they keep asking for more! I love any easy crockpot dessert, especially when it gets rave reviews!
This went over big with my whole family, even those who do not like pears! Made it just as recipe called for except I used 3/4 cup buttermilk because I was out of regular milk.
