- pear - 4, peeled and halved
- vanilla pod - 1, halved lengthways and cut into small pieces
- ice cream - vanilla, to serve, optional (*omit for DF)

- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- If you need to make your own caster sugar, add sugar (150g) to the bowl and grind Speed 9 / 3 seconds.
- To the caster sugar (150g), add the raspberries (250g) into the bowl. Program 10 minutes / 100C / Speed 2.
