Cook Time: 45 minutes
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 450°F.
Wash, remove the outer leaves, and cut off the fennel stalks. Cut each bulb lengthwise in thin slices. Place them in a baking pan.
In a small pot, melt the gorgonzola with the milk. Add the cream, Parmesan cheese, extra virgin olive oil, thyme, sea salt and black pepper. Toss the fennels with this mixture.
In a food processor combine bread crumbs, extra virgin olive oil, garlic cloves, salt, and pepper.
Sprinkle the crumble on the fennel, add cherry tomatoes, and thyme sprigs. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in the oven until fennel is soft – about 30 – 35 minutes.
Remove the foil and cook for about 15 minutes until cherry tomatoes are caramelized and the crust has a nice golden color. Sprinkle some fresh thyme to garnish.
