Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 egg yolks
2 teaspoons corn oil
2 teaspoons water
4 medium-sized ripe tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup Garden Pesto or store-bought pesto

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into an 8-inch circle, using a salad-size plate as a guide. Remove to an ungreased baking sheet. Prick the pastry all over with a fork.

    Step 2

    2. Whisk together the egg yolks, corn oil, and water; brush lightly on the pastry. Arrange the tomatoes in concentric circles, leaving a 1/2-inch edge.

    Step 3

    3. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Drizzle the tarts evenly with the olive oil, sugar, and pepper. Bake about 25 minutes or until the tarts are golden and the tomatoes are caramelized.

    Step 4

    4. Serve immediately, with a dollop of Garden Pesto .
