Overall, I thought these crostini were just okay. I wouldn't make them again.

The pears were a bit undercooked for my taste. I think I would have preferred them to be a little more caramelized.

The crostini were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I would have preferred them with a little more butter or oil.

These crostini were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a sharper blue cheese.

I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed these crostini. The pears and honey helped to balance out the flavor of the blue cheese.

These crostini are perfect for a party or appetizer. They are also a great way to use up leftover pears.
