Rosemary & Pear Galette

Methods

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Roll out the pastry dough into a 10–12 inch circle and place it on the prepared baking tray.
3. In a small bowl, combine the softened goat cheese, The Holly Tree Organic Rosemary Leaves, The Holly Tree Organic Black Pepper Powder, The Holly Tree Organic White Pepper Powder, and lemon zest. Mix until smooth.
4. Spread the goat cheese mixture evenly over the center of the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.
5. Arrange the pear slices in overlapping circles on top of the goat cheese.
6. Sprinkle the toasted walnuts evenly over the pears.
7. Drizzle with olive oil and half of the honey.
8. Fold the pastry edges over the filling, pleating as you go to create a rustic galette.
9. Brush the pastry edges with the beaten egg.
10. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the crust is deep golden brown and the pears are tender.
11. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
12. Finish with the remaining honey and an extra light sprinkle of The Holly Tree Organic Rosemary Leaves before serving.
