- •5 pounds pears - peeled, cored and diced
- •½ cup water
- •2 cups packed brown sugar
- •2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- •¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- •1 teaspoon almond extract
- •2 tablespoons limoncello liqueur
Instructions
- Place the pears and water into a pot or large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until pears are soft, about 30 minutes. Sterilize six half-pint jars and keep warm.
- Transfer pears to a food processor and pulse until they reach your desired consistency. Return to the pan, and stir in the brown sugar, lemon zest, nutmeg, almond extract and limoncello. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches a thick consistency like butter, about 1 hour.
- Ladle the pear butter into the sterile jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal with lids and rings. Process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes to ensure a seal.
