Ingredients

  • 12 slices (1/2 Inch Thick) Baguette
  • 6 Tablespoons Crumbled Blue Cheese
  • 1  Red Anjou Pear, Cored, Cut Into 12 Slices
  • 1-½ teaspoon Agave Nectar (or Honey)
  • ½ teaspoons Fresh Thyme Leaves

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and light toast in the oven, about 2 minutes.

Divide blue cheese evenly between the baguette slices (about 1 ½ teaspoons per slice) and bake until cheese starts to melt, 3–4 minutes.

Place the pears in a medium bowl and, using your hands, coat with the agave nectar or honey. Top each baguette slice with a pear slice and a few thyme leaves. Serve.
