Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 2 ripe pears, sliced

Cheese

  • 8 oz burrata cheese

Glaze & Oil

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate molasses or pomegranate glaze

Nuts

  • 1/4 cup toasted walnuts

Greens & Garnish

  • Fresh arugula or microgreens, for garnish

To Serve

  • Crackers or sliced baguette

Seasoning

  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Prepare Pears: Toss the sliced pears gently in olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt to enhance their natural sweetness and flavor.
  3. Roast Pears: Spread the pear slices evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 12–15 minutes, or until they are tender and have a slight caramelization on the edges.
  4. Arrange Board: Place the burrata cheese in the center of your serving board. Surround it with the warm roasted pears, toasted walnuts, and fresh arugula or microgreens to add color and texture.
  5. Drizzle Glaze: Generously drizzle the pomegranate molasses or glaze over the pears and burrata, adding a vibrant, tangy sweetness to balance the creamy and nutty elements.
  6. Serve: Present the board immediately alongside crackers or sliced baguette for guests to enjoy the varied textures and flavors together.

Notes

  • Use ripe yet firm pears to ensure they hold their shape when roasted.
  • To toast walnuts, bake them on a baking sheet at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes until fragrant.
  • The pomegranate glaze adds a tart sweetness; adjust quantity to taste.
  • Substitute arugula with microgreens or fresh basil for a different flavor profile.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and freshness.
