Ingredients
- 4 slices Rustic bread
- 1 large Ripe pear
- 4 tablespoons Creamy goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 handful Arugula (optional)
Directions
Step 1
1. Start by slicing the pear into thin, even slices. Remove the core and seeds, but leave the skin on for added texture.
Step 2
2. Lay out the slices of rustic bread and spread 1 tablespoon of creamy goat cheese on one side of each slice.
Step 3
3. Arrange the pear slices evenly on top of the goat cheese on two of the bread slices.
Step 4
4. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the pear slices on each sandwich. If desired, add a handful of arugula for a peppery contrast to the sweetness.
Step 5
5. Place the remaining slices of bread on top, goat cheese side down, to form two sandwiches.
Step 6
6. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Once melted, carefully place one sandwich in the skillet.
Step 7
7. Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden brown. Flip the sandwich and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the second sandwich, adding the remaining butter to the skillet if needed.
Step 8
8. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice each sandwich in half and serve warm. Enjoy!
