Ingredients

  • 3 oz brie
  • 1/2 firm ripe pear, such as Bosc or Anjou
  • 4 slices bread, such as whole wheat or challah
  • 1 tsp butter
A cherished breakfast and lunch classic gets a makeover with the simple addition of sliced fruit.

Directions

  1. Slice cheese and pear thinly. Place 2 slices of bread on a board. Top each with cheese and pear slices. Sandwich with remaining bread. In medium non-stick frying pan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook sandwiches until golden on the bottom, 2 to 3 min. While gently pressing on top, carefully flip each sandwich with a spatula. Cover and cook until cheese is melted, about 2 more min. If browning too quickly, reduce heat. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately.
