The humble pear is such a delicious autumn treat. And it’s so versatile – from breakfast, salads, pasta and pickles to an epic roast, puddings and drinks, we’ve got all the easy pear recipes you could need.

So whether you’ve got a pear tree that keeps on giving or just love eating the seasons, we’ve got all the easy peasy pear recipes you could need right here.

Some dishes need no introduction – sweet pears, fragrant warming spices and crisp pastry. Heaven.

Here’s a real Sunday lunch celebration of the humble pear. Beautifully caramelised pear and veg served alongside roast pork packed with sage, pine nut and pear stuffing – so good.

Quite a claim, but beautiful pears and stem ginger is always a winning combo. So simple to make, too, this is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

On the lookout for an oh-so-simple dessert? Our boozy pears pack a punch! All you need are five gorgeous ingredients to deliver a dinner party pud that will go down a storm.

A speedy salad of grated beetroot and pear in a simple lemon jam-jar dressing. Finished with crumbled feta, this makes a great little starter or snack.

An Oliver family favourite, soak your oats overnight then stir in grated pear in the morning for a super-tasty, fruity breakfast.

Best made the day before, this elegant but easy pud looks so impressive for very little effort. Just what you need!

A brilliant 5-ingredient dinner that’s ready in just 15 minutes. Pear and blue cheese is a classic combo and, served with charred radicchio and walnuts, this is a next-level midweek meal.

Make the pear syrup in advance, then shake it up with vodka and lemon juice for a deliciously easy cocktail.

Spice up a Ploughman’s, picnic or buffet spread with a pickle that’s a little bit special. It’s at its best with chicken or pork. Give it a go.

A winter warmer for chilly evenings – pear and apple juice flavoured with ginger, cinnamon, cardamom and zesty lime… with a shot of rum for good measure. Happy days!

Light and refreshing, this fruity sorbet makes a lovely little dessert. Best made with really ripe pears, it’s a great get-ahead pud. Grappa optional!
