INSTRUCTIONS

1. Peel the pears and cut into eighths. Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the pears and sauté for about 2 minutes until slightly softened. Sprinkle the pears with brown sugar and allow to caramelize, stirring occasionally. The pears should be slightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

2. Preheat the oven (200°C top/bottom heat / 180°C convection). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the Briette. Coarsely chop the pecans. Roll out the puff pastry and cut into 6 equal-sized triangles. Set a slice of Briette on top of each puff pastry triangle, then top with some of the caramelized pears and chopped pecans. Working from the wide side, roll up the croissants and set them on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the croissants with a little milk, then sprinkle with a pinch of brown sugar. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 12–15 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.

Enjoy your meal!
