Bartlett Pear and Gorgonzola Bruschetta
Ingredients
- 12 baguette slices
- 4 oz mild, creamy Gorgonzola at room temperature
- 2 ripe Bartlett pears, halved, cored, and peeled
- Fresh ground pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 400F.
Place the baguette slices on a non-stick or ungreased baking sheet. Toast until lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
Remove and set aside. Spread each piece of toast with a thin layer of Gorgonzola.
Slice the pears and then top each of the toasts with them and return to the baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2 or 3 minutes, just long enough to melt the cheese and warm the pears. Garnish with fresh ground pepper.
