Step 1

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Slice the pears in half lengthwise and remove the cores with a small spoon or a melon baller.

Brush the cut sides of the pears with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Grill the pears for about 3-5 minutes on each side until they are soft and have visible grill marks.

Step 7

While the pears are grilling, combine the honey, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until well mixed and warm.

Step 8

Once the pears are grilled, remove them from the grill and place them on a serving plate.

Step 9

Drizzle the warm honey cinnamon mixture over the grilled pears.

Step 10

Serve each pear half with a dollop of Greek yogurt on the side.

Optionally, sprinkle chopped nuts over the pears for added texture and flavor.
