Mini pizza with Brie cheese, caramelized pear and pecans

Cut out smaller circles from the pizza dough using a glass or a cookie cutter. Place the circles on a baking tray lined with baking paper and pre-bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 10 minutes, until golden brown.

Slice the pears. Heat the maple syrup in a pan, then cook the pear slices in it for 1-2 minutes per side. Add the pecans and let them caramelize nicely.

Place a slice of Brie cheese, a slice of caramelized pear, and a pecan on each pre-baked dough circle. Return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes, until the cheese melts. When serving, garnish with cranberry preserve, dried cranberries, and fresh thyme.
