Roquefort Pear Tart

Ingredients:

• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
• 1 large pear, thinly sliced
• 3/4 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 12-inch square. Transfer the pastry to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prick the pastry all over with a fork, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
3. In a small bowl, mix the Roquefort cheese with the flour until combined. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the pastry, staying within the border. Arrange the pear slices on top of the cheese and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the honey over the pears and sprinkle with thyme leaves.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Verdict:

This Roquefort Pear Tart is the perfect combination of savory and sweet. The creamy Roquefort cheese and juicy pears complement each other perfectly, while the honey adds a touch of sweetness. The thyme adds a beautiful aroma and flavor to the tart.

Serving suggestions:

Serve this tart as an appetizer or a light lunch with a side salad. It pairs well with a crisp white wine or a light red wine.
