Description

Whip up this fantastic Pear and Gorgonzola Flatbread for a quick, sweet, and savory treat. It’s simple to make and perfect for an appetizer or a light meal. You will love the combination of flavors!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made flatbread crust (about 10-12 inches)
  • 1 ripe pear, thinly sliced
  • 4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Pinch of black pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven according to the flatbread crust directions, usually around 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  2. Place the flatbread crust on a baking sheet.
  3. Brush the surface of the flatbread evenly with olive oil.
  4. Scatter the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese over the oiled crust.
  5. Arrange the thin pear slices over the cheese.
  6. Drizzle the honey lightly over the top.
  7. Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of black pepper.
  8. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from the oven and slice immediately to serve.

Notes

  • Choose a firm but ripe pear for the best texture, like Bosc or Anjou.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, use a less pungent blue cheese like Danish Blue instead of Gorgonzola.
  • A drizzle of balsamic glaze after baking adds a nice tang.
  • For extra crunch, toast the crust slightly before adding toppings.
