Ingredients
- 500 g pear bout 4 ripe pears, sliced
- 30 g butter
- 70 g demerara sugar or dark brown sugar
- 8 raisin bread 12 slices or brioche
- 50 g butter melted for brushing
- 100 g – 150g approx. 25g per sandwich – Gorgonzola (or similar creamy blue cheese)
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a non-stick frying pan and toss in the pears to coat. Sprinkle the sugar over and allow this to bubble for 3 – 5 minutes (depending on how ripe the pears are), shaking the pan every now and again.
- When the pears have started to soften and caramel has formed, take them off the heat and allow to cool in the pan.
- To make the sandwiches heat the Breville toasted sandwich maker and lightly spray the surface with cooking spray. Assemble the sandwiches by topping a slice of bread with pears and crumbling the blue cheese. Close with another slice of bread, and then brush each side with melted butter.
- Place these in the toaster and seal. Allow to toast until golden brown
