Pear And Brie Triangles

appetizers, fruits, cheese

1 pkg (14 1/2 oz) frozen puff pastry; thawed
8 ounces Brie cheese
1 pear
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme

On lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pastry into 12- x 8-inch rectangle; cut in half lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into quarters; cut each in half diagonally to make triangles. Place pastry triangles on parchment paper-lined baking sheet; pierce all over with fork. Bake in centre of 375°F oven for 10 minutes or until golden and puffed. Let cool on rack. Repeat with remaining pastry. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 24 hours.) Meanwhile, cut cheese into 32 thin slices. Quarter pear lengthwise, removing core; cut each quarter lengthwise into 8 thin strips. Place 1 piece of cheese on each pastry triangle; top with pear strip. In small bowl, combine lemon juice, oil and thyme; brush over pear and cheese. Bake for about 5 minutes or until cheese starts to melt.
