Ingredients
1 sheet refrigerated pie crust (or homemade)
2 tbsp butter
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or ½ tsp dried)
2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
4 oz brie, sliced (rind on)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Salt & pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, thyme, salt, and pepper; cook slowly until golden and jammy (25–30 min).
Roll out crust on prepared sheet. Spread onions in the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
Arrange pear slices over onions, then lay brie slices on top.
Fold crust edges over filling, pleating as needed. Brush crust with egg wash.
Bake 25–30 min, until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Cool slightly before slicing.
