Roasted Pears with Fig Spread and Brie – Healthyish Foods

About this Appetizer Recipe

The pears are so tender you can scoop a piece by simply using your crostini or cracker. Topped with delicious and fruity fig spread and creamy melted brie, this recipe is a home run. For a Healthyish twist, add some fun and festive toppings. Things like, candied pecans, cranberries or blackberries are all great additions. Personally, I love incorporating fresh herbs into my recipes as well. So, feel free to add fresh rosemary to brighten things up. 

Looking for a wine to enjoy with this appetizer? Try a glass of pinot noir. The pinot noir is light enough not to overpower the brie and will taste great with the fruity fig spread as well. 

What’s great, is that you can add these delicious roasted pears with fig spread and brie cheese to a holiday charcuterie board. Another way to enjoy them is simply on their own with a few crostini toasts.

If you decide to add them to your holiday charcuterie board, Delallo Foods has so many incredible meats, cheeses, olives, crackers and spreads that will go perfectly with these pears. If you haven’t noticed, I am a huge Delallo Foods fan. They source and manufacture only high-quality products that can be found in most grocers, which is great! So, if you haven’t tried their products yet, I recommend you give them a try.

Storage

Store any leftover pears covered in the refrigerator for three to four days. You can heat the pears in the microwave so the cheese melts again. This recipe makes 10 servings. That equates to half of a pear per person.

Ingredients

  • 5 ripe pears
  • 5 ounces Delallo Foods’ fig spread
  • 10 ounces brie cheese, cut into 10 pieces, about 1 ounce each
  • 4 sprigs rosemary, fresh

Optional Toppings:

  • ¼ cup candied pecans
  • ½ cup berries, or pomegranate seeds
  • ¼ cup cranberries, fresh or dried

Equipment

  • baking tray

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Cut the pears in half and core out the seeds using a spoon or melon baller. Leave the skin on.
  • I also like to shave a small piece of pear off of the back so the pears can sit flat on the baking tray.
  • Add the pears to the baking tray fruit side up.
  • Brush a 1/2 tablespoon of fig spread on each pear.
  • Remove the rind from one side of the wheel of brie cheese and cut the brie cheese into 10 evenly-sized pieces.
  • Stuff the core of the pears with the brie cheese pieces.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes depending on how ripe your pears are. If they are ripe it may only take 25 minutes. If they are less ripe, you may need 30-35 minutes.
  • Remove the pears from the oven, place them on a platter and top them with your favorite toppings. Serve warm and enjoy!
