Baby bruschettas with poached pears, gorgonzola and port syrup

7 ingredients 30 min + 30 min Serves 8 openrecipes

It is really important that the pears are firm for this recipe, or they will fall apart when you poach them. Poaching the pears can be done the night before.This also allows the syrup to cool and thicken.
