Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 baguette sliced
  • 2 ripe pears thinly sliced
  • 4 ounces Gorgonzola crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts
  • Black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Brush the bread with olive oil and toast for 6–8 minutes.
  2. Top each slice with pear and Gorgonzola. Return to the oven for 3–4 minutes, until the cheese softens.
  3. Drizzle with honey, then add walnuts and black pepper. I arrange them on a platter before anyone wanders into the kitchen looking hungry.
