Place two slices of bread buttered-side down on a cutting board. Layer pear slices over each piece, then top with the brie. Place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered-side up, to form two sandwiches.
1 pear
Transfer the sandwiches to the hot skillet and cover with a lid. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully flip, cover again, and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until the second side is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice if desired, and serve immediately.
How to Store Leftovers
