Description

A simple combination of sweet and savory flavors come together for a delicious blue cheese appetizer. These gluten free and vegetarian pear bites are an easy recipe for this holiday season with only a few ingredients and no cook time. So if you are a fan of blue cheese and easy appetizer recipes you have to try these whipped blue cheese pear appetizer bites with honey.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 D’Anjou Pears sliced
  • 5 oz Crumbled Blue Cheese
  • 5.3 oz Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 1/4 cup Pecans
  • Honey

Instructions

  1. Wash pears and cut into 1/4 inch slices. If you cut them too thin they will be difficult to pick up.
  2. In a medium sized bowl whip together the blue cheese crumbles and the Greek yogurt until smooth. This works best with an electric mixer.
  3. Using a piping bag and a star tip, squeeze a dollop of the blue cheese mixture onto each sliced pear. See my notes above on my Ziplock bag method.
  4. Place a pecan on top of each blue cheese dollop.
  5. Top with a drizzle of honey.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

Pears come in different sizes which may result in leftover topping. Each D’Anjou pear yields about 15 slices.

Makes 40-50 pear appetizers depending on pear size.
