Easy Tomato and Brie Tart
This Easy Tomato and Brie Tart is made with puffed pastry, creamy brie and fresh tomatoes. An appetizer that can be whipped up in minutes!
Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 5 oz red grape tomatoes halved
- 5 oz yellow grape tomatoes halved
- 8 oz brie cheese rind removed and sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Thaw puff pastry according to package directions.
- Wash and halve the grape tomatoes. Place in a bowl and add olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix and set aside.
- Roll out the puff pastry onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut puff pastry into 6 even squares. Lightly score the puff pastry, (be careful not to cut the puff pastry through), leaving a 1/2 inch around the edge.
- Place the brie slices on the bottom of each pastry. Arrange the tomatoes evenly over the brie, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry turns golden and the cheese has melted.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes. The cooling time helps the tart set.
- Top with fresh basil.
- Serve the tomato and brie tart warm or at room temperature.
- Store any leftovers in an air tight container for up to 3 days. Remove and place in a preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes.
