Equipment
- 1 Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- 1 Skillet large, for caramelizing onions
- 1 Pressure cooker for speeding up onion caramelization
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil the base to get those onions cooking nice
- 3 Onions roughly chopped
- Salt small pinch to coax out the onion’s natural sweetness
- 8 ounces Goat cheese at room temperature
- ½ teaspoon Black pepper for a little kick and earthiness
- 1 sheet Frozen puff pastry defrosted
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme gotta get that herbal note in there
Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so your tartlets slide right off.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium. Toss in your chopped onions with a pinch of salt.
- Cook those onions slowly, stirring a bunch. After 20 to 25 minutes, they'll get golden and caramelized just right.
- Switch to your pressure cooker now. Use the sealing ring, set to slow release for a few extra minutes to get those onions perfectly tender.
- While that’s happening, roll out your puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 4 equal squares and set them on the baking sheet.
- Spread room temperature goat cheese on the center of each pastry, leaving about a half inch border around the edges.
- Spoon the caramelized onions carefully on top of the goat cheese. Sprinkle black pepper and fresh thyme over everything.
- Pop the tartlets in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes until puffed and golden. Let cool for a few before digging in!
Notes
Leftovers can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage. Reheat in an oven to retain crispiness.
