Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Place the thinly sliced tomatoes on top of the cheese, overlapping slightly. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

Notes

Use ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel to prevent a soggy crust. For extra flavor, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the tomatoes before baking. Serve warm or at room temperature.
