Crumble the cheese. Peel the pears, halve them, remove the cores, and cut the halves into fan-shaped slits. Whisk the egg yolk with 1 tbsp water. Brush the edges of the pastry sheets with this mixture, then arrange onions, cheese, and pear halves on the pastry, leaving a border about 0.5 cm wide. Brush the pears with the remaining butter. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (medium) for about 15-20 minutes until golden.
