Description

A delightful appetizer featuring juicy pears, creamy Brie, tart cranberries, and a sweet thyme-infused honey on crispy crostini.


Ingredients

  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces Brie cheese, sliced
  • 2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme

  3. Top each crostini with a slice of Brie, a pear slice, and a few dried cranberries. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Drizzle the thyme honey over the crostini and serve immediately.
