Crisp toasts, creamy blue cheese, sliced pear and a drizzle of Hot Honey. A classic pairing with a kick.
Serves: 6 as a nibble (about 18 crostini) | Prep: 10 min | Cook: 8 min
Ingredients
- 1 baguette, sliced 1 cm thick
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 150 g creamy blue cheese
- 1 ripe pear, thinly sliced
- ⅓ cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
- 3 tbsp The Flavorsmith Hot Honey
- Fresh thyme leaves
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C. Brush the baguette slices with oil and lay on a tray.
- Bake 6–8 minutes, until golden and crisp. Cool for a few minutes.
- Spread or crumble blue cheese on each toast and top with a slice of pear.
- Scatter over the walnuts and thyme, then drizzle with Hot Honey.
Chef's tip: Take the blue cheese out of the fridge 30 minutes early — it spreads easily and tastes far better.
