Introduction: Pear Blueberry Brie Pie

About: I love making things! I have a lot of ideas but I don't have time to realize all of them. I am normally too curious to see how my ideas will look like so I don't spend too much time on planning in advance. I l…

It's fall and all the farms around me are selling apples and pears. I don't like pies which are only sweet, so I decided to make a pear pie which is not a desert but rather a starter or a snack. I checked what I had at home and so the Pear Blueberry Brie Pie came to life :). It turned out really good (if you like sweet and salty), so here is what you need if you like to do it yourself:

  • 4 Pears
  • 1 Shallot (or regular onion)
  • Brie Cheese
  • 1 Sheet of Puff Pastry (approx. 40x25cm / 16x10 inches)
  • Salt
  • 3-4 Table Spoons of Lemon Juice
  • Blueberries

Step 1: Prepare Everything

  1. Cut the pears and the shallot as well as the Brie cheese into very thin slices
  2. Take a fork and punch holes into the puff pastry (so it won't form huge bubbles underneath)
  3. Put the Brie cheese onto the puff pastry
  4. Add the shallot

Step 2: Add Pears, Lemon Juice and Blueberries

Add the pears, then sprinkle a little salt over the pears. Depending on how much you like the contrast between sweet and salty, add more or less than a teaspoon.

Then add the lemon juice and the blueberries.

Step 3: Bake & Enjoy!

Bake the Pie for approximately 25-30 minutes at 200°C (approx. 390°Farenheit). Take it out of the oven and serve it when it's still warm. Enjoy!
