Preparing the pears: Peel the pears, halve them and remove the core, but leave the stem attached.
Vanilla-thyme marinade: Mix the honey, lemon zest, finely chopped thyme, and vanilla seeds in a bowl. Add the pears and mix well so that the marinade completely coats the pears. Line the air fryer baking accessory with baking paper, place the pears in it, and bake for 10 minutes at 200°C. Remove the pears and set them aside.
Brownie batter: In a bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla seeds, and coconut blossom sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes). In another bowl, mix the almond flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Add this dry mixture to the egg mixture, along with the milk and melted coconut oil. Mix until a smooth batter without lumps forms.
Baking: Pour the brownie batter into the air fryer baking accessory lined with baking paper. Decoratively place the baked pears on top and bake for 18-20 minutes at 180°C. Let the brownie cool slightly before serving.
Serving: Serve the brownie with a spoonful of vanilla sauce. Garnish with a sprig of thyme and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
