Crostini with Pear & Blue Cheese
Running out of time when preparing to entertain is my specialty. These are lifesavers. You can make a boatload of these in 10 or 15 minutes!
Ingredients
1 long French baguette (crusty French bread)
olive oil
2 to 3 fresh pears, sliced thin (Remove core and do not peel.)
blue cheese, room temperature
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
Steps
1 long French baguette (crusty French bread)
olive oil
2 to 3 fresh pears, sliced thin (Remove core and do not peel.)
blue cheese, room temperature
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
Steps
- Slice the French bread into fairly thin slices - about 1/2 to 1 inch thick.
- Place bread on a cookie sheet and brush the tops of the bread with olive oil.
- Bake in 350 degree oven until surface of bread is lightly browned. Keep watching, so it doesn't burn. I can't really tell you how long this will take. It depends on the bread and your oven! Trust me, keep looking at it.
- Remove bread from oven and let cool.
- Spread with room-temperature blue cheese and top with a slice of pear.
- Drizzle with a few drops of the honey and lemon mixtures. You are DONE!
