    Did you know, that there is a whole world of baked fruit out there, just waiting to be discovered? You'll find everything from baked almond butter bananas to apple pie baked apples, lemon berry dessert bars, and Paleo apple crisp with pecans and coconut.

    With a little careful consideration and regard for the highest quality ingredients, it can all be made Paleo! So, when you are looking for dessert options, just pick your favorite fruit, and adapt.

    We know that whatever you bake will taste so amazing, no one will even care - or realize - that it is grain-free. Try a dish of whole baked pears with honey, ginger, and ghee and see who asks for more.

    Start with buying pears that are neither too ripe, nor underripe, rather just right. Depending on the sweetness of the variety, you may want to add either more or less, honey.

    Perhaps even none at all. See, this recipe is so versatile that you can even add lavender flowers, if you wish, for a tantalizing accent. But don't stop there! You can personalize these baked pears even further by adding coconut butter to make them vegan.

    Drizzle them with balsamic vinegar and bacon bits for a sweet and savory dish. Go the traditional route with cinnamon and cloves, or try it with a generous dollop of Paleo salted caramel.

    Go nuts with toppings until you discover the version you like best!
