Place pears in a blender or food processor; process until smooth. Combine pear puree, sugar, and remaining ingredients in a medium sauté pan over medium heat; bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook 3 hours or until mixture is thick.
The taste is amazing. Started this on our first cold day and the house smelled of fall all day. It took a long time to thicken. I also kept the peels on because they were so tender, and that is where the vitamins are.
