Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons honey mustard
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 teaspoon lemon juice
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
-
2 ripe pears, preferably Bosc
-
2 ounces Brie cheese, cut into 4 slices
-
4 teaspoons chopped pistachios, toasted (see Tip)
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Coat an 8-inch-square (or similar-size) metal baking pan with cooking spray.
-
Whisk mustard, oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
-
Cut pears in half lengthwise, hollow out the core and slice a small piece off the other side so they will lie flat when served. Brush all over with the mustard glaze and place cored-side down in the prepared pan.
-
Bake the pears for 30 minutes, basting halfway through with the glaze. Gently turn them over, baste again and place a piece of Brie in the hollow of each pear. Bake until the pears are tender and the Brie is slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle each pear half with 1 teaspoon pistachios.
Tips
Tip: To toast seeds and chopped, small or sliced nuts cook in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
