-
1 sheet puff pastry or flatbread
-
2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
-
4 oz (120 g) crumbled gorgonzola cheese
-
¼ cup honey
-
¼ cup chopped walnuts
-
A handful of fresh arugula

👨🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Base
If using puff pastry, roll it out lightly on a floured surface. If using flatbread, you can use it as-is. Place it on the prepared baking sheet and brush with olive oil.
3. Layer the Toppings
Arrange the pear slices evenly across the base. Sprinkle crumbled gorgonzola over the top.
4. Bake
Place in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
5. Add Final Touches
Remove from the oven. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle chopped walnuts, and add a handful of fresh arugula. Finish with freshly cracked black pepper.
