Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry Thawed, keep the second one handy just in case
  • 3 Roma Tomato Small, or 2 large
  • 4 Fresh Basil Leaves Finely chopped
  • 2-3 pinches Salt
  • 1/2 clove Garlic Very finely chopped
  • Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Cut puff pastry dough into little rounds.
  • Place rounds on silicone mat lined baking sheet and place in the fridge.
  • Chop tomatoes and basil, stirring together in a small bowl.
  • Add a few pinches of salt and garlic.
  • Mix well.
  • Brush oil inside each opening in the mini muffin pan.
  • Divide the tomato mixture evenly among all 24 openings in the mini muffin pan.
  • Sprinkle a layer of grated parmesan over the tomatoes.
  • Top each opening with a puff pastry round.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes until the puff pastry is a light golden brown.
  • Be sure to rotate the pans after 10 minutes.
  • Using a spoon remove the tartlets from the pan by scooping up the tomatoes and inverting each tartlet and placing on a serving tray.
  • They are best served warm.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • I used a tiny shot glass to cut my rounds, 1 3/4 inches across, and it was the right size to set on top of the tomatoes and reach the sides of each mini muffin cavity.
  • The number of tarts will depend on the size of the openings in your mini muffin pan. Use the second puff pastry sheet if necessary.
