• Poke holes all over dough with a fork, leaving the outer inch untouched. Bake until dough starts to puff, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk together egg and cheese until smooth and spread over dough, using a spoon to move mixture toward the corners.
• Sauté onion in oil in a frying pan until softened. Scatter onion and pear over cheese.
• Bake until pastry is golden brown and egg has set, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with thyme and cut into squares.
