Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Quarter the pear lengthways, remove the core and thinly slice (no need to peel). Pop the pancakes onto a large baking tray in a single layer. Line another baking tray with foil and lay the bacon rashers on in a single layer. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Put the soured cream in a bowl and add half the honey. Mix together and set aside.
When the oven is hot, pop the bacon on the top shelf of your oven to bake until golden, 15-20 mins. IMPORTANT: Cook bacon thoroughly.
Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan on medium heat (no oil). Once hot, add the flaked almonds and dry-fry, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 3-4 mins. TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily. Transfer the almonds to a bowl and pop your pan back on medium-high heat.
Add the butter to your pan and lower the heat to medium. Allow it to melt, then add the pear slices, remaining honey and cinnamon (see ingredients for amount). Add a pinch of salt and cook the pears until nicely softened and juicy, 4-6 mins. Turn every minute. Once softened, remove from the heat and set aside.
Meanwhile, pop the pancakes in the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins. Once warmed, remove from your oven and spread the soured cream mixture evenly on top of each pancakes.
Stack two pancakes on each of your plates and top with the honey buttery pears, bacon and a sprinkling of toasted almonds. Enjoy!
