Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Halve the pears lengthwise and remove the cores using a melon baller or a small spoon, creating a small cavity in the middle of each half.
Place the pear halves, cut side up, in a baking dish just large enough to hold them.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well combined and fragrant.
Drizzle the cinnamon-honey mixture evenly over the pear halves, ensuring each half is generously coated.
Sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top of each pear half, pressing slightly so they adhere to the honey mixture.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the pears are tender and the tops are golden.
Let the pears cool slightly before serving. Serve warm on their own or with a dollop of Greek yogurt or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
