Crème Fraîche
4 tablespoon
Pear
1 unit
Lemon

Yogurt
8 tablespoon
Dried Cranberries
1 ounce
Cinnamon
1 teaspoon
Maple Syrup
2 tablespoon
Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon
Sliced Almonds

Butter
1 tablespoon (tbsp)
Wash and dry produce.
Halve, core, and dice pear into ½-inch pieces. Quarter lemon.
Melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add pear, cinnamon, brown sugar, half the maple syrup, ¼ cup water, juice from one lemon wedge, and a pinch of salt (½ cup water and juice from two wedges for 4). (Save remaining lemon wedges for another use.)
Bring mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pear is softened, 10-12 minutes. Gently mash with a potato masher or fork until mixture is soft but still chunky.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together yogurt, crème fraîche, and remaining maple syrup.
Toast waffles until golden brown.
Divide yogurt mixture between two small serving cups or bowls (four cups or bowls for 4 servings). Garnish with almonds and dried cranberries.
Divide waffles between plates; top with pear compote. Serve with parfaits on the side.
