Categories     easy, quick, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup hazelnuts
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
2 large, firm pears, peeled, halved and cored
1/3 cup honey
4-ounce wedge of Stilton cheese, quartered

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 10 minutes. Place the nuts between 2 kitchen towels and rub to remove as much skin as possible. Coarsely chop the nuts and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a medium-size cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pears and cook until caramelized on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes. Lower the heat and add the honey to the skillet. When the honey melts, turn the pears to coat them on both sides. Cover and cook until the pears are tender but not too soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Cut each pear half across into 1/4-inch-thick slices, but keep the shape intact. Place each pear half onto 1 plate and fan it forward. Place a piece of Stilton beside the pears and scatter each plate with some of the hazelnuts. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe but not too soft pears for the best texture and flavor.
  • Use a sharp knife to core the pears carefully, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a freezer bag with the corner cut off to fill the pears with the hazelnut mixture.
  • Bake the pears until they are tender and the hazelnuts are golden brown.
  • Make the maple glaze while the pears are baking so that it is ready to pour over the pears when they come out of the oven.
  • Serve the pears warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
