I once had a cinnamon pear recipe I think came from the old Mirro canning
book that came with my first canner back in the early 1980s. I gave the
book away with the canner years ago. I now have a new canner but the book
doesn't include this recipe. The pears are getting ripe and I would love to
can them using that old recipe. Does anyone have it or one similar? It
included pears, a light syrup, cinnamon and I believe brown sugar and
raisins.

An old trick is to can using simple syrup and add a handful of leetle
cinnamon candies.

Nah.... if these pears ever ripen I'll do them in a light syrup with brown
sugar and cinnamon sticks.

That reminds me of an old recipe I used to have for cinnamon cucumbers.
The cucumbers were peeled, halved, and seeded. Sugar, water, and a rather
large amount of the little cinnamon candies were cooked up, the cucumber
crescents were cooked in the syrup until just tender, then canned. They
actually tasted more like the cinnamon apple rings I used to see in the
supermarket.
