Bacon Wrapped Roasted Pears with Goat Cheese and Honey
Description
This recipe features halved and cored Bosc pears filled with rich goat cheese, each wrapped tightly in a slice of thick-cut bacon. The pears roast slowly in a 375°F oven, starting from cold to allow even cooking, until the bacon crisps and caramelizes. A quick finishing broil adds extra browning. The combination of tender roasted pear flesh, creamy tangy goat cheese, and smoky crisp bacon creates a balanced flavor and texture profile that is both luxurious and approachable.
Serving is simple: the pears are sprinkled with flaky sea salt and drizzled with honey, which adds a sticky sweetness that complements the savory elements. Fresh rosemary provides a herbal note and aroma, making these pears a distinctive finger food or starter for entertaining or special meals.
