Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush them lightly with the olive oil. Sprinkle them lightly with salt. Bake for about 4 minutes until the edges start to turn golden brown, then remove and let cool. Keep in mind that they will firm up as they cool, so don’t overbake them.
Cut the prosciutto into pieces the right size to drape over the crostini. Cut the blue cheese into thin 1/2-inch pieces.
Onto each cooled crostini, layer a piece of pear, a piece of prosciutto, and a couple of pieces of the blue cheese. Lightly drizzle the crostini with the honey. Give a quick grind of pepper over all.
Notes
To Make Thyme-Infused Honey
Place enough sprigs of clean fresh (but dry, not damp) thyme to fill about half a container (you can curl them into a ring so that they fit nicely and look pretty in the jar). Pour in honey until it fills the container and make sure the thyme leaves are submerged. Let it sit for at least 5 days and up to two weeks (the longer the herbs stay in the honey, the more pronounced the flavor will be). Strain out the herbs and place the honey in another clean container. This will last for months, though if it starts to look murky in any way, it needs to be tossed.
