Cheese And Pears On Toast Recipes

CHEESE AND PEARS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Melt 2 tsp butter in a frying pan and cook the pears on a low heat for 2 mins
• Add the honey and cook until the pears have caramelised on both sides
• Meanwhile, toast the cut side of the rolls
• Spread the cottage cheese on each half, put the pears on top and drizzle with the pan juices to serve

GORGONZOLA-PEAR TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly brush 1 side of each baguette slice with olive oil. Place the slices on a baking sheet and toast 5 to 7 minutes, or just until beginning to brown. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and gorgonzola cheese, stirring until well mixed. Spread the toasts with the cheese mixture. Top with the pear slices and chopped candied pecans. Sprinkle with the parsley.

PEAR-STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Mash together 5 tablespoons of the butter with the chopped pears and chill.
• In a large flat dish, whisk together the eggs, cream, and vanilla.
• In the side of each bread slice, make a deep slice into the center to form a pocket. Stuff a spoonful of pear butter into each piece. Place the stuffed bread into the egg mixture and let soak for a few minutes. Turn each piece and continue soaking until the bread has absorbed enough of the egg mixture to be completely moistened but not falling apart.
• Heat a large skillet and swirl in 1 tablespoon of the butter. Working in batches, cook the soaked bread until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet as needed. Serve warm with more butter and the maple syrup.

GOAT'S CHEESE, PEAR & WALNUT TARTINES

Steps:

• Heat a griddle pan. Cut the pears into quarters or eighths, brush with the oil and season. Cook for a few mins until charred on all sides, then drizzle with the honey.
• Meanwhile, toast the bread. Spread with the goat's cheese and top with the sticky pears, chives and walnuts. Drizzle over the balsamic vinegar and serve with some dressed salad leaves.
