Goat Cheese Tart with Honey & Figs

Yield 6 servings

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees (F).
  2. Roll the sheet of puff pastry out on a floured surface to create a 10-inch square.
  3. Prick all over with a fork. Make a 3/4-inch border on all sides by pressing the edge of a ruler into the pastry to make a mark.
  4. Fold the pastry over where you've marked to make a double-thick rim.
  5. Transfer the rolled out pastry to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the center is golden brown and puffed.
  6. Mix the goat cheese and 2 TBSP. of honey together and spread over the puffed pastry, staying inside the border.
  7. Arrange the figs on top of the goat cheese mixture, some facing up, others facing down.
  8. Sprinkle with the rosemary and sea salt. Bake for another 7-8 minutes, until the rim of the pastry is golden brown.
  9. Drizzle with the remaining honey and cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

If you are making this for a party or gathering, I highly recommend making two tarts so that you have plenty to go around.
