Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed (about 8.6 ounces)
  • 1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water, for egg wash
  • 4 ounces goat cheese at room temperature, plus more for garnishing
  • 4 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon honey, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped plus more for garnishing
  • 2 ripe pears, thinly sliced

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese and goat cheese until smooth. Add the honey and thyme and mix well to combine.
  • Roll out the sheet of Puff Pastry into a lightly floured board. With a rolling pin, lightly flatten the pastry. This will make the pastry smooth. Fold over the edges and crimp down with a fork. 
  • Brush the entire pastry, edges included, with egg wash. Spread the cheese mixture evenly all over the pastry but avoiding the borders.
  • Refrigerate for 5 -10 minutes.  Remove from the refrigerator and arrange the pears over the cheese mixture. Garnish with small pieces of goat cheese. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and drizzle with honey. Garnish with fresh thyme (if desired) and serve.
