    Grilled Cheese with Pear

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    It is time to harvest the pears from two trees in our yard. That can only mean one thing. It is time for pear tarts, pear Danish, pear butter, pear salad, and grilled cheese sandwiches with pears.

    My seasonal Grilled Cheese with Pear uses multigrain bread, Brie, maple bacon, arugula, and fresh sliced pears.

    The maple bacon is delicious. If you choose to use maple bacon, be aware that it burns easily due to the maple syrup.

    This rustic seeded, multi-grain bread held up well to the juicy pears and soft cheese in this grilled cheese with pear.

    The bitterness of the arugula worked well to balance out the sweet things going on in this sandwich. Whether you get your pears from your own trees or the market, make this sandwich. Since you have pears make my Rustic Pear Tart too. Autumn is not the same without it!

    Ingredients:

    • Multi-grain bread
    • Butter
    • Brie
    • Pear
    • Maple bacon
    • Arugula

    (See recipe card for amounts)

    Instructions:

    • Cook maple bacon in skillet over low heat until crisp. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
    • Butter one side of each slice of bread.
    • Cut pear into ¼ inch slices. Slice Brie.
    • Heat a large skillet over medium heat add one slice of bread, butter-side-down into the pan.
    • Top with sliced Brie, sliced pears, and bacon. Place the second slice of bread on top, butter-side-up. 
    • Top with sliced Brie, sliced pears, and bacon. Place the second slice of bread on top, butter-side-up.
    • Heat until the cheese melts, then flip the sandwich over and cook on the second side until the bread is golden brown. Serve piping hot.

    I am Mary, the blogger behind "Oh That's Good!" I am a former nurse, former hobby farm blogger, former vintage shop owner, and current food blogger. I live with my husband and our little mutt Tucker in a lovely retirement community. I am cooking for two and taking inspiration from old cookbooks, magazines, and memories of watching my mother and grandmother cook. I like reducing my food waste and exorbitant grocery bills! I am busy rewriting my recipes for two servings with the option of adjusting the recipe up to four or six servings with just one click.
