Editing How to Bake Pears in Wine

Baked pears in wine is a delicious and easy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. Here's how you can make it:

Ingredients:
- 4 ripe but firm pears
- 1 cup of red wine
- 1/4 cup of sugar
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Peel the pears and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove the core and seeds with a spoon.

3. In a medium-sized pot, combine the red wine, sugar, cinnamon stick, nutmeg, and ginger. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.

4. Add the lemon juice to the wine mixture, stir well, and then add the pears to the pot.

5. Simmer the pears in the wine mixture for about 10 minutes, turning them occasionally to make sure they are coated in the liquid.

6. Remove the pears from the pot using a slotted spoon and place them in a baking dish.

7. Pour the wine mixture over the pears in the baking dish.

8. Bake the pears in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and the wine has thickened slightly.

9. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the pears cool for a few minutes.

10. Serve the pears warm with a drizzle of the wine sauce and a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
