Ingredients

2 English muffins, halved

1 inch pear sliced in ⅛ thick whole slices, core removed

4 tablespoons brie, or soft creamy goat cheese

4 slices of prosciutto

Oil and salt

Preparation

Preheat the broiler on high and set the oven rack to a high position. Lay the pear slices on a baking sheet.

Brush them with oil on both sides and sprinkle them with salt. Broil the pears for 2-4 minutes--until the edges are crisp and the flesh is tender.

Smear a tablespoon of soft creamy cheese across each English muffin half. Once the pears are tender, lay one on each toast.

Place the toasts on the baking sheet and top each with a slice of prosciutto.

Broil again for 2-4 minutes, until the prosciutto and muffin edges are crispy. Serve w arm!
