This rustic galette features caramelized Vidalia onions, sweet pears, and savory blue cheese wrapped in a flaky pie crust, all topped with fresh arugula for a deliciously balanced dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 Vidalia onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 pears, thinly sliced
  • 1 pie crust
  • 1/4 cup Roth Buttermilk Blue Cheese Crumbles
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1 cup arugula

Method

  1. In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and stir. Continue cooking, stirring often, for about 50 minutes until the onions are caramelized. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  3. Roll out pie dough and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Arrange caramelized onions on the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle half of the blue cheese on top. Layer the pear slices over the onions.
  5. Fold the edges of the pie dough up over the filling, leaving the center exposed. Brush the edges with milk.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and top with the remaining blue cheese. Return to the oven for 5 minutes until the cheese melts.
  7. Remove from the oven and top with arugula. Serve warm.
