Preparation

Heat a grill pan over medium high heat and brush with oil (or spray with cooking spray). Place the sliced pears cut side down in a single layer on the grill pan. Grill the pears for 1-2 minutes per side, then remove from the pan and place them on a plate.

Add a little more oil to the grill pan, then place the baguette slices cut side down on the grill pan and grill them for 1-2 minutes per side. Place the grilled bread on a serving platter and top with a slice of Gouda and a slice of grilled pear.

Top the crostini with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of fresh thyme.
