Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
  • 2.5 ounces blue cheese (crumbled)
  • 1/2 pound figs (stemmed and halved)
  • 2 tbsp pine nuts
  • 2 sprigs rosemary (plus more for garnishing)
  • Egg wash (1 egg + 1/4 cup water)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Honey (for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  2. 2

    Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and reserve. On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a 9 by 12-inch rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick, and transfer to the baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Arrange the figs, cut side up, all over the puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Then, top with the crumbed blue cheese, pine nuts and rosemary. Make a border by gently folding over the 1/2-inch pastry on the sides.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the figs with olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt. Don't go too crazy, as the blue cheese is already salty enough!

  5. 5

    Then, brush the edges with egg wash and bring the tart to the preheated oven. Bake until golden and puffed, about 25-30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Drizzle with honey, garnish with more rosemary (if desired) and serve warm or at room temperature.
