Wash and cut pears in half. Scoop out center core with seeds with a large tablespoon and discard. Sprinkle the brown sugar over each one, Put one T of chopped pecans (or walnuts if you prefer) in each pear. Drizzle maple syrup over the top, sprinkle with cinnamon. Put in baking dish lined with parchment paper with about a 1/4 cup of water. Cover with foil, and bake at 400 f for approx. 40 min or until tender. Should be fork tender.
