How to make it
This super fancy Caramelised Onion Tart is also super easy, if you use pre-prepared puff pastry. Serve it warm or at room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
- On a floured surface, roll out puff pastry to a 9″-x-13″ rectangle, then transfer puff pastry to the prepared baking sheet and prick all over with a fork
- Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes, then let cool slightly
- Meanwhile, in a large pot, warm the butter over medium-high heat
- Add onions and cook until golden, 10 minutes, then add brown sugar and cook 5 minutes more
- Season with salt and pepper
- Spread caramelized onions over puff pastry, leaving a 1/2″ board around the edges
- Sprinkle with goat’s cheese and scatter thyme sprigs on top
- Bake until puff pastry is golden brown and crisp and cheese is warm and melty, about 10 minutes
- Let the tart cool slightly, then cut into squares and serve
