Pancetta Crisps with Goat Cheese and Pear

This elegant pancetta with goat's cheese and pear appetiser offers a sophisticated balance of salty, sweet, and creamy notes. By oven-baking the pancetta until it reaches a delicate, cracker-like consistency, you create the perfect savoury base for the soft cheese and juicy fruit. It is a fantastic choice for those looking for a lighter, grain-free alternative to traditional bruschetta or crostini, providing a satisfying crunch without the bread.

Perfect as a quick party nibble or a stylish starter for a dinner party, these bites require minimal preparation but deliver a professional finish. Use very ripe pears to ensure a soft texture that contrasts beautifully with the crisp meat, and finish with a scattering of aromatic thyme. This simple yet effective combination is naturally gluten-free and makes a wonderful addition to any seasonal celebration.
