Pear And Prosciutto Bruschetta Recipes

PEAR & PROSCIUTTO BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to Broil. In a small bowl, mix pear, onion, 1 Tablespoon olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and thyme. Set aside to marinate for 5 minutes. While Pears are marinating, lay baguettes slices on a cookie sheet. Using a pastry brush, brush the tops of each with olive oil (about 3 Tablespoons total) Heat bruschetta slices in oven for 3 - 5 minutes. WATCH CAREFULLY as your baguette may burn. You want a slightly golden top. DO NOT OVER COOK. (Your oven will cook different than mine so watch close, cooking times are estimates.) Remove from oven. Sprinkle each with crumbled blue cheese and allow blue cheese to slowly warm and melt. While Baguette slices are still warm but not burning hot, Spread blue cheese onto each slice. Spoon pear mixture onto the blue cheese. Top with sliced prosciutto. Serve Immediately.
