Description
An elegant yet easy Tomato Tarte Tatin featuring caramelized cherry tomatoes and flaky puff pastry, perfect for any meal or gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Let puff pastry thaw if frozen.
- In an oven-safe skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar and cook until golden. Stir in balsamic vinegar.
- Add halved cherry tomatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until softened.
- Spread tomatoes evenly in the skillet, cut-side up. Let cool slightly off heat.
- Place puff pastry over the tomatoes, tucking edges around the inside of the skillet.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes until pastry is golden and puffed.
- Let the tart rest for 5 minutes, then invert onto a plate. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm cherry tomatoes for the best results.
- Don’t skip the resting time before flipping—it helps set the tart.
- For added flavor, top with fresh basil or a drizzle of olive oil.
