4 pears, peeled
10 fluid ounces red wine, or more to taste
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed

1 orange, peeled and juiced (peel reserved)
7 ounces shelled walnuts, divided
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 orange, zested and juiced
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar, or as needed

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Arrange pears in an oven-proof pan with a tight-fitting lid; add red wine, 1/2 cup brown sugar, vanilla bean and seeds, and the peel and juice of 1 orange. Bring pear mixture to a boil; sprinkle with half the walnuts.
3
Bake the pear mixture in the preheated oven until pears are tender, 20 to 30 minutes, basting pears with red wine syrup every 10 minutes. Remove from oven and cool; remove the vanilla bean and orange peel from the red wine syrup.
4
Arrange the remaining walnuts on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until toasted and fragrant, 5 minutes.
5
Place the toasted walnuts in a food processor and pour in the red wine syrup; pulse until paste-like consistency. Transfer to a bowl. Whisk cream, sour cream, zest and juice of 1 orange, and 2 teaspoons brown sugar into walnut-red wine paste until smooth.
6
Serve walnut-cream sauce over baked pears.
