Pear Crostini




Source of Recipe


Marla


List of Ingredients




Pear Crostini


8 Crostini (see earlier recipe)

For the topping

1 large pear (at room temperature), cored and halved lengthwise, each half cut crosswise into twelve ¼-inch-thick slices (see Tip)
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
¼ cup garlic and herb-flavored chevre cheese
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese



Recipe



Begin by preparing the Crostini.

Toss the pear slices and maple syrup in a small bowl. Allow to stand at room temperature for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Adjust the oven broiler rack to 4 to 5 inches from the heating element; preheat the broiler. Arrange the crostini in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spread each crostini with cheese. Use a slotted spoon to strain the pear slices; arrange a row of 3 overlapping slices on each crostini. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Broil the crostini for about 1 ½ to 2 minutes, or until the pear slices are tender and the cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Serve immediately while warm or allow to come to room temperature.

Makes 8 crostini - 4 servings
