Roasted Pears with Blue Cheese, Honey & Thyme

Halve and core the pears, scooping out a small well in each half to hold the blue cheese.

2. Assemble

Place the pear halves cut side up in a baking dish. Drizzle lightly with olive oil. Fill each well with crumbled blue cheese.

3. Bake

Roast in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, until the pears are tender and the cheese begins to melt.

4. Finish

Remove from the oven. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with fresh thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Add chopped walnuts if desired for extra texture and flavor.

5. Serve

Enjoy warm as a sophisticated appetizer or a light, sweet-and-savory dessert.
