Ingredients
- 1 pear, unpeeled, very thinly sliced
- ½ lemon, juiced
- 100g salted butter
- 2 tbsp runny honey
- 4 small slices of rye sourdough
- 120g blue cheese (we used dolcelatte)
- 2 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
- 10g toasted pecans, finely chopped
Method
- STEP 1
Put the pear slices in a small bowl and toss with the lemon juice.
- STEP 2
Melt the butter in a small pan over a medium heat and cook for 6-8 mins or until brown and nutty. Add the honey, turn off the heat and vigorously whisk until the honey is melted and combined with the butter. Cover and keep warm.
- STEP 3
Toast the bread lightly. Spread each slice thickly with the blue cheese. Drain the pear slices, patting them dry, then top each toast with a few. Give the brown butter honey a final whisk, then drizzle over the toasts. Scatter with the thyme leaves and pecans, and serve.
