This simple, tasty pear recipe was created by Chef Jamie Lauren of Absinthe Brasserie and Bar in San Francisco and cookbook author Mollie Katzen. If you can’t find Bosc pears at your local grocery store, red or green Anjou pears also work well.

2 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
Juice of ½ lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
1 ½ cup nonfat vanilla yogurt or frozen yogurt
½ cup chopped, toasted California walnuts
