These are so easy you could almost make them in your sleep: leave the pastry to thaw in the fridge overnight & the next morning before guests arrive simple spread the pastry sheets with goat cheese, scatter the tomatoes, pluck some fresh thyme sprigs, salt & pepper & they’re ready to bake. So simple.

tomato goat cheese tarts

Flaky & buttery puffed pastry topped with creamy goat cheese & sweet, tart cherry tomatoes, infused with a sprinkling of freshly thyme, sea salt & cracked black pepper – these pastries make the perfect addition to a brunch or as a starter to serve with cocktails at your next soiree. 
Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time30 mins
Total Time35 mins
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: French
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 17.3 oz package puff pastry sheets, thawed according to package directions
  • 8 oz creamy goat cheese, softened
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 lb yellow & red grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 3 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme
  • salt & freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 375F (190C). 
  • Place a sheet of puff pastry on a baking sheet. Spread the pastry with half of the goat cheese to within a little less than 1/2 inch of all four sides. Brush the sides with egg & fold them over to form a border. Use a fork to lightly press them down. Repeat with the other sheet of pastry & goat cheese, placing it on the baking sheet. 
  • Scatter with both tarts with the tomatoes & thyme. Sprinkle with salt & pepper. Bake on the lower racks for about 35 minutes, switching baking sheets around halfway through cooking. Cook until pastry is puffed & golden brown & tomatoes are wilted. Cut each tart into 4 to 6 pieces to serve. Serve warm. Serves 6 to 8. 

We use Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets in this recipe.

Our darling mum passed away last year. I hear her Our darling mum passed away last year. I hear her voice every day offering support & advice. One of my favourites is this simple ‘start how you want to finish’ advice. It was told to her when she decided she’d take care of her mum, my nan, at home when she became very ill & needed around the clock care. 
As a new year lies before us & we can make it anything we want. So go forth how you want to continue. For me that’s with intent, small reasonable goals, simplifying home & life where possible & taking care of myself both my mental & physical health. 
Last year was a fucker, this year I’m taking care of me. We are nothing without our health. 
Happy 2023 to those who’ve stuck around with me, especially during my absence over the last 12 months, & to the newcomers who’ve joined the Fresh Hunger community. Thank you for your support. I’ve got some fun, helpful projects coming your way I can’t wait to share with you all. L xo
