Hi Caleb, I use my canned pears in a pear caramel upside down cake. They're gorgeous and the grandkids love it. Ingredients Softened unsalted butter for the pan For the topping 2 medium firm-ripe Bosc pears (about 1 lb.) 1 recipe Basic Caramel 2 oz. (4 Tbs.) unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces For the cake 6-3/4 oz. (1-1/2 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour 1-3/4 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. ground ginger 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp. table salt 1/2 cup whole milk 1-1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 4 oz. (8 Tbs.) unsalted butter, softened 1 cup packed light brown sugar 2 large eggs Preparation Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9×2-inch round cake pan (don’t use a springform pan, as the caramel might leak out during baking). Line the bottom of the pan with a round of parchment and butter the top of the paper. Make the topping Peel, core, and cut the pears lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the pear slices on the bottom of the pan in a circle around the edge, overlapping them slightly, with the pointed ends towards the center. If necessary, cut a little off the pointed ends to make the slices fit better. Or if the pear slices don’t reach all the way to the middle, arrange a few of the shorter slices in the center to cover the bottom of the pan. Make the Basic Caramel according to the directions. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the 4 Tbs. of butter one piece at a time, until they are completely melted. Carefully pour the hot caramel evenly over the pears (it should spread over the pears and onto the bottom of the pan). Make the cake batter Sift the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, and salt into a medium bowl. Stir to combine. In a small bowl, stir together the milk and vanilla. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.Turn the mixer to medium and slowly add the brown sugar. Increase the speed to high and continue to mix until lightened in texture and color, 2 to 3 minutes total. Reduce the speed to medium and add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Reduce the speed to low and alternate adding the flour mixture and milk mixture in five additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix each addition just enough to incorporate, as overmixing will lead to a tougher cake. Scrape down the sides of the bowl one last time and mix briefly to blend well. Bake the cake Spoon the batter in large dollops over the pears and smooth it into an even layer with an offset spatula. Bake the cake until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the pan. Turn a cake plate upside down on top of the cake pan and, using pot holders, carefully invert the cake pan onto the plate.
I'm so glad I found you again. For years I watched you and then I moved and lost you.,...yes my loss,.was thinking of you and wishing I could find your channel again, and blessed I'm cause here you are!!!!!!!!
So much great information here. Thank you. I canned pears for the first time this year and I will do it every year I am able! My grandmother put a piece of ginger in her canned pears so I tried that. I was delicious. I'm going to try the cinnamon stick next time.
Hi Caleb. Pears are my all time favorite. Thanks for showing this process. I usually freeze them in light sugar water. Regardless they are great in the long winter months.
Do you heat the lids in hot water first so they seal better? Also, do you think you could put the jars cold as well? I was worried they might break going from cold into the hot bath. Love the videos. Thanks.
I wish I had seen this before I wasted 10 lbs of beautiful pears, following the “right way” … ugh! I ended up reprocessing them into pear sauce, so not a total loss, but your method makes more sense to me. I prefer the lightest syrup as well.
I live just down the road from you. We love pears. Did you grow these or where did you find them? Love your channel and I have enjoyed both your yards for years. Used to think it was neighbors competing 😉 but your sister filled me in...all before I knew about your channel.
Hi. I’m very inspired by your canning videos,but, I don’t know for how long I need to boil them. I know you’ve suggested to check on line for the correct time according to our location and I have but I couldn’t figure it out. Please forgive my ignorance. I have frozen fruit, also inspired by your videos.😊Thank you for sharing.
10-12 minutes if your elevation is below 1200 feet. 15 minutes if you’re above that. And the water-bath during the canning process will also continue sterilize. Even at a mile high, 10 minutes plus the canning process itself, will be plenty. And remember to sterilized the lids, too.
Would using 100% juice can up as well? I hate pears but I have been thinking about doing peaches. I've been put off by all the recipes and the amount of sugar.
Hi there! The length that it should be boiled will depend on your altitude. Click on the link in the description to go to my website and find the times needed depending on your altitude. Hope this helps! 🌞
There are two basic ways to safely can pears: the hot pack method and the raw pack method. Although it requires fewer steps, the raw pack method results in an inferior product. The fruit tends to shrink during processing and float up out of the canning liquid. The pieces that float to the top tend to discolor, which can be unappealing. This hot pack method, however, reduces the likelihood of floating fruit and overall discoloration.
@@cindybonem494 Thanks! I’m VERY new to canning so trying to learn as much as I can. I will give Swerve a try. I bake with Erythritol, wonder if I can use that too. 🤔
We have pears and I remembered the little jars of pears and sometimes guavas my grandma would make and keep until we came to visit on holidays. So now I'm here... P.S. 10% by weight or volume?
Im giving mine as gifts to my coworkers and family my gran has 5 pear trees and she could do anything with them her hands are bad so im doing for her she loves canned pears
I took my friend to the food bank last year she disabled and doesnt have a car sge got a whole case if pears and sge gave them to me. Yes i canned them 12 quarts and half i put a cinnamon stick.
Please, please people do not leave the rings on when you are done canning your pairs. Not only can it give you a false seal, but it can also break the seal in time. Takeoff your rings.

Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for sharing this : this sounds divine !!! A masterpiece of the pear !! Lol.
I wish you had a cookbook of your recipes and your canning!
I never knew you could scald pears to peel. That's great! Love your videos.
I know your grandma is very proud of you! THANK YOU ❤️
Thanks! My pear tree is producing so much this year and I can’t stand to see so many fall and go to the chickens. Going to try this.
Thanks for the recipe! I've been wanting to try canning pears and you just gave me the motivation.
I'm so glad I found you again. For years I watched you and then I moved and lost you.,...yes my loss,.was thinking of you and wishing I could find your channel again, and blessed I'm cause here you are!!!!!!!!
Love, love pears. Thank you. 😀💕❤️

Your idea of having the kettle ready with extra water is brilliant - thank you!!!
Love watching you videos! I'm finally got inspired now to can my homegrown pears! Thank you!
Your canning videos are always my favorites. Pears also make a good granita in the short run, and a spiced butter in the long run.
Where 👏 have 👏 you 👏 been
Such a pleasant voice with FACTS and a smile! Thank you for your giving nature. 🌹 ❤
I love how you always mention your mother and grandmother/s!!
I have a pear tree ..love this easy , simple canning idea..
I love that you explained what you could use them for. Im really new to canning.
Also, damn buddy got a nice kitchen.
I have not canned pears in years but now I'm getting back to basics.
I am exci I didn’t know you could dip and peel, great idea,I can’t wait !
Hi Caleb. Pears are my all time favorite. Thanks for showing this process. I usually freeze them in light sugar water. Regardless they are great in the long winter months.
Every Fall my mom and I made pear preserves which are so delicious and not really found in grocery stores.
So Inspiring. Can’t wait to start my canning adventure
Thanks for sharing Yr great work with us, I love Yr videos, great job every time. All the very best frm England
Excellent segment. thank you.
I love this so much! Last year, I made it and ended up eating the whole jar by myself. 😂
Have always wanted to learn to can. I'm nervous to try it alone. You make it looks it fun and easy!!!
I just canned pears for the first time! Beyond easy. Give it a try! Good luck
Do you heat the lids in hot water first so they seal better? Also, do you think you could put the jars cold as well? I was worried they might break going from cold into the hot bath. Love the videos. Thanks.
Thx for video and making the recipe available !
My foster mom made canned pears and she added a little cinnamon to hers. They were like candy to us kids! 😋🥰😊
Thankyou
Thank you very much for this video! Very simple :)
Thanks Caleb! So why no lemon in the water? I thought food has to be acid to hot water bath.
Nice job
How should you store the jars? Standing up or on their sides?
I just love your content! Thank you!!!
How long do you boil fruit jars
I wish I had a pear tree. My mother in law made a pear cobbler years ago and it was a AHA moment. It was so much better than peach cobbler.
OMG I love pears my favorite I love you Kaleb!! 😘💚🍐
I mean great video.
Thank you 😊
How long did they boil ?
Awesome info thank you
I would just love to know where I can get fresh pears in Iowa…if there’s someplace other than the store.
How long are you boiling?
How long we can keep and what temperature?
I’ll never understand why anyone used regular mouth jars! Thanks. We’re getting ready to can pears in early September. Working on peaches now.
Thank you so much ❤️
I like it

Do you have to peal them?
Dont the jars crack if its too hot?
How long did you boil your pears?
My mom would steam juice the peelings and cores and make jelly.

Google your elevation by your zip code. That will give you your reference for all canning recipes.
@@KMcKee-qn6bo THANK YOU. The elevation is 3700-4000.
Yummy 😋
Would using 100% juice can up as well? I hate pears but I have been thinking about doing peaches. I've been put off by all the recipes and the amount of sugar.
Are pears acidic enough or is the sugar what makes them safe?
Make sure to have a rack inside canning kettle
How long did you boil them for?
It says in the description …click “more” my the title of the video.
Your 10% light syrup ratio- By weight or volume (or am I asking a stupid question)? Does it matter?
You nvr Said how long you bath them
Pantry tour!?

Caleb, this looks yummy. Have you used any sugar substitute? We are on a sugar restricted diet, so preparing these would be amazing. Thanks
Give Swerve sugar substitute a try, you use it just like sugar. 0 carbs and doesn’t raise blood sugar levels.
@@cindybonem494 Thanks! I’m VERY new to canning so trying to learn as much as I can. I will give Swerve a try. I bake with Erythritol, wonder if I can use that too. 🤔
Live this
It's recommended that you boil the pears for a few minutes (hot pack) to release the air that's in the fruit itself.
I have just finished watching your tutorial with thanks.
The sugar that you add is it appropriate for
Diabetics?😮
I didnt hear your day the processing time. Did I miss it?
How long do you boil?
I only wish you had actual measurements for the water-sugar. Also the time you set the timer for.
He said 10 to 1. So 1 cup sugar to 10 cups water .
We have pears and I remembered the little jars of pears and sometimes guavas my grandma would make and keep until we came to visit on holidays. So now I'm here... P.S. 10% by weight or volume?
Yum!
My mom prefers wide mouth also. We use same recipe for apples. Mom pears do not grow as well as apples.
Great video!
How long do you boil the jars?
It all goes by your elevation and jar size.
Recipe says 30 minutes. Might be less for pints.
Cheers, thanks.
Im giving mine as gifts to my coworkers and family my gran has 5 pear trees and she could do anything with them her hands are bad so im doing for her she loves canned pears
Thank you it’s time for me to switch to canning more then making wine
Never store with rings on. Reason is that you could have a seal fail and ring would keep it down and you wouldn't know it.
How long did you water bath them. Great video
Yes how long ?? Thanks for making this look so easy
Click on the description of the video. There’s even a printable recipe.
Yesssssssss
I took my friend to the food bank last year she disabled and doesnt have a car sge got a whole case if pears and sge gave them to me. Yes i canned them 12 quarts and half i put a cinnamon stick.
Have you ever canned Mangoes?
Please, please people do not leave the rings on when you are done canning your pairs. Not only can it give you a false seal, but it can also break the seal in time. Takeoff your rings.
Even Ball states you can leave them on loosely. No false seals.
He’ll no
