Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp fresh basil, chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet and score a border about 1/2 inch from the edge using a knife.
  3. In a bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, thyme, basil, salt, and pepper. Spread this mixture evenly over the puff pastry, staying within the scored border.
  4. Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the ricotta mixture, pressing them lightly into the filling. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg to create a golden, glossy finish.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the tomatoes are slightly caramelized.
  6. Allow the tart to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Choose ripe tomatoes for a flavorful tart. Customize the cheese or add nuts for extra texture. Can be prepared ahead and reheated before serving.
