Buttery and sweet, simple yet exotic, this Saffron Pear Butter is wonderful on so many levels! With only a handful of ingredients and a straightforward process, you can make a jar to have on hand, or ramp up production and gift small jars as at the holidays or any time of year. We like to make big batches in the fall at pear harvest time and enjoy it on toast, biscuits, pound cake or as a sweet bite on a cheese board.
