COCONUT POACHED PEARS

2 cups coconut milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 cinnamon stick
4 small soft peaks, peeled and halved

Place the coconut milk, sugar and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Do not let the coconut milk boil as it will separate.

Add the pears and cook for 15 minutes, turning once. To serve, place the pears in bowls and serve warm with the coconut broth.

Serves 4.
