Apple-Pear Ricotta
A friend shared this recipe with me, and I decided it was too delicious not to share. It's extremely easy, relatively healthy, and makes a great dessert or snack open to variation. Note that the amounts of sweetener, cinnamon and vanilla are rough - adjust to personal taste.

DIRECTIONS
- Chop the apple and pear into bite-sized chunks and transfer them into a medium to large size frying pan (note that the pan needs to be fairly deep). Sprinkle cinnamon overtop until all of the chunks are well-dusted.
- Add the water to the frying pan a half cup at a time - you may need more or less water depending on the size of your pan. You just need enough to evenly cover the bottom of the pan.
- Turn heat to high and let the water come to a boil, stirring often. Let the water evaporate until it reaches a syrupy consistency. Turn off heat.
- Split the ricotta between 2 bowls and add 1 tsp of vanilla extract to each portion. Divide the fruit and syrup between the two bowls, and add sweetener to taste.
- Stir and enjoy!
