If you can't find very ripe pears for this recipe, substitute peaches or plums. To peel hazelnuts, toast them until the papery outer skins crack, cool, then rub gently between your fingers.
 

Ingredients

1 medium pear(s), Bartlett, very ripe   
1 Tbsp honey   
6 average shelled hazelnuts, peeled, coarsley chopped   
2 Tbsp uncooked old fashioned oats   
1 tsp butter   
4 tsp unpacked brown sugar   
2 Tbsp pear nectar   

Instructions

  • Preheat grill.

  • Peel, halve and core pear. Cut a small slice off the rounded side of each pear half so halves will stand on grill. Set pear halves on grill, flat side down; brush with honey. Grill 10 minutes on each side, brushing occasionally with honey.

  • While pears are grilling, make filling. In a small pan, stir together hazelnuts and oats over medium heat until lightly toasted. Stir in butter until it melts. Remove from heat; stir in sugar and nectar.

  • When pears are hot and tender, spoon filling into centers and serve.
