This was a nice blend of flavors! I did not peel my pears, left them in halves, and made this with 1 1/4 cups cranberries, 1 cup broken walnut pieces, and added 1/4 cup raw sugar. Next time I'll reduce the water to 3/4 cup and will cover the dish with foil for the first 10 minutes of cooking ~ Made for Fall PAC 2012.
