In reply to Meagan Weese. Hi Meagan - I haven't tried it, but apple juice is generally a good substitute for wine in most recipes.

Is there a substitute for wine that you would recommend?

I was liberal with some changes but this came out great! I added ginger and star anise and decreased the sugar and water to one cup, and pressure cooker for 4 mins. I think so much syrup is unnecessary because we are topping with the chocolate sauce anyway.

Sharon– Just substitute water for the wine. Yes, on the chocolates sauce–use 3/4 cup of cream and a tablespoon of butter instead of the coconut oil and coconut milk. I envy your 4 pear trees!

What would be a good substitute for the wine? For the chocolate sauce, milk or cream and butter can be used , the way I normally make chocolate sauce. Love the maple syrup which will give the sauce a unique/intriguing taste. Thanks for sharing your pressure cooker recipe. We have four pear trees and I’m always looking for pear recipes. I usually make Poires Belle Helene a few times each season. Thanks again.
