A delightful tart featuring perfectly caramelized onions, buttery pastry, and a sprinkle of cheese. Ideal for gatherings or a cozy treat!
Ingredients
For the Tart
- 2 large large onions (preferably yellow) Sliced thinly
- 2 tablespoons olive oil For sautéing
- 1 tablespoon butter For sautéing
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar To add flavor to the onions
- 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed) For the tart shell
- 1 cup crumbled goat cheese Or your cheese of choice
- Fresh herbs (like thyme or rosemary) For garnish
- Salt and pepper To taste
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by slicing the onions thinly.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat.
- Add the onions, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper. Stir well.
- Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.
- Stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for another minute.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
- Place the rolled pastry into your tart or pie pan and trim excess.
- Pour the caramelized onions into the pastry shell and sprinkle the goat cheese on top.
- Bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffy.
- Once out of the oven, garnish with fresh herbs, slice, and serve.
Notes
Feel free to substitute goat cheese for feta, Gruyère, or mozzarella. You can prepare the onions a day or two in advance and reheat before adding to the tart shell.
