Roasted Veggie Puff Pastry Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with heavy-duty foil. Place potatoes and carrots in dish; toss with 2 teaspoons of the oil. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper over vegetables; toss and arrange in single layer in dish. Roast 15 minutes. Add Brussels sprouts and leek to baking dish; toss with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Spread all vegetables in single layer. Roast 15 to 20 minutes longer or just until tender when pierced with fork. Carefully remove foil and vegetables from dish; set aside.
• Spray same baking dish with cooking spray. In 2-cup microwavable glass measuring cup, mix water and sugar. Microwave uncovered on High 2 to 3 minutes or just until amber colored. Carefully stir in vinegar (mixture will bubble up). Pour evenly into baking dish; quickly spread over bottom. Sprinkle oregano and sage over sugar-vinegar mixture in baking dish. Arrange vegetable over herbs in dish. Sprinkle evenly with cheese.
• On lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry with rolling pin into 13x9-inch rectangle. Place pastry over vegetables, folding edges under to fit if necessary. Pierce pastry all over with fork. Bake 20 to 25 minutes longer or until pastry is golden brown. Remove from oven; cool 10 minutes. Place heatproof serving platter upside down over baking dish. Carefully turn platter and dish over; remove dish. If necessary, replace any vegetables or glaze that stick to dish. Cut into squares.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into a 10-by-14-inch rectangle. Using a paring knife, lightly score a border around the perimeter of the puff pastry about a 1/4-inch away from the edges. Place puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet and prick the pastry inside the border using a fork to prevent puffing in the center. Bake on top rack until puff pastry is lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, toss carrots with 1 tablespoon oil, season generously with salt and pepper and spread into a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast carrots on the bottom rack (underneath the puff pastry) until the edges are golden brown and carrots are still crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While puff pastry and carrots are in the oven, blend ricotta, feta and garlic in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the cheese mixture onto the puff pastry up to the border and arrange the carrots in a single layer on top. Bake until the carrots are tender and the edges of the cheese mixture are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with herbs before serving.

Steps:

• Combine the basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, ½ cup (120 ml) of olive oil, ricotta, salt, and pepper in a food processor and puree until blended and smooth. Set aside.
• Using a vegetable peeler, peel the zucchini, yellow squash and carrots into ribbons.
• Cut the eggplant lengthwise into thin slices, then slice in half lengthwise.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) tart dish with butter using a piece of parchment paper.
• Lay the puff pastry in the tart dish and delicately press it flat against the bottom and up the sides. Crimp any dough hanging over the edges and prick the bottom all over with a fork.
• Lay a piece of parchment paper over the pastry and pour the rice evenly on top. The rice helps keep the bottom of the crust from rising while baking.
• Parbake the crust for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry starts to cook.
• Carefully lift the parchment paper to remove the rice (save for using in other recipes or discard). Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
• Spread the ricotta pesto mixture evenly on the bottom of the tart.
• Starting from the outside, line the walls of the tart with the veggie ribbons, alternating veggies, until the entire shell is filled.
• Sprinkle the oregano on top and brush with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the veggies are tender.
• Let cool for a few minutes.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the vegetables, 3 tablespoons oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Transfer to an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake at 450° for 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and moisture has evaporated, stirring every 10 minutes., On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a 13-in. circle. Sprinkle cornmeal over a greased 14-in. pizza pan; place pastry on prepared pan. Spoon vegetable mixture over pastry to within 1-1/2 in. of edges. Fold up edges of pastry over filling, leaving center uncovered. Brush pastry with remaining oil., Bake at 450° for 20-25 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with cheese. Cut into wedges. Garnish with basil if desired.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place one rack in the upper 3rd of the oven and one rack in the lower 3rd.
• 2. Combine the olive oil, rosemary, parsley, thyme, 1/2tsp salt and 1/4tsp pepper; whisk to incorporate. Combine the zucchini, red onion, red bell pepper, potatoes, tomatoes and garlic; toss with the olive oil mixture. Spread on roasting pan and roast until they are browned around edges, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool about 5 minutes.
• 3. While veggies are roasting, Combine ricotta, goat and feta cheeses, egg, green onion and remaining salt and pepper and set aside.
• 4. Roll out one piece of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 13x11-inch rectangle. Cover the remaining pastry with a moist towel so that it doesn't dry out while you are working. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and transfer the pastry to this. Cut 1-inch strips from all four sides. Create a border around the tart by brushing the edges of the rectangle with water and laying the cut strips on top, trimming to fit. Poke holes in the bottom of the pastry with a fork. Repeat the process to make the second tart. Place one baking sheet on the upper rack and one on the lower rack and bake for 5 minutes; rotate the pans, swapping the one on the bottom for the one on top, and bake for 5 minutes more. Remove from oven, poke with a fork and use a spatula to carefully press down the puffed centers. Return the pastries to the oven to cook 5 more minutes. Cool on wire racks 5 minutes.
• 5. Divide the cheese mixture between the pastries and spread it evenly, then divide and add the veggies.
• 6. Bake the tarts until the cheese is set, 15-20 minutes. Rotate the pans halfway through the cooking time as in prior step 4. Cool tarts on wire racks a few minutes, then slice each into 6 squares.

Steps:

• Put a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper. If you like, you can sprinkle Gruyère or Cheddar onto the center of the liner or paper in an approximate 10-by-13-inch rectangle.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, Parmesan, lemon zest or rosemary, garlic (if using), and pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Beat in the crème fraîche until smooth.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to form a 10-by-13-inch rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the dough to prepared baking sheet. (Place directly on top of the grated cheese, if applicable.) With a sharp knife, lightly score a 3/4-inch border around the edges of the puff pastry, making sure not to cut the pastry all the way through. Using a fork, prick the pastry all over inside the border at 1-inch intervals.
• Spread crème fraîche mixture evenly inside the scored border. Arrange vegetables in an even layer, using just enough to cover the surface in one layer. Scatter scallions and thyme or rosemary sprigs on top. Lightly drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the vegetables are cooked through, about 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve topped with microgreens, herbs or baby lettuces, and accompanied by lemon or lime wedges, for squeezing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the tomato slices on a baking rack and sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
• In a saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat and cook the onions until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, cut an 8-inch circle out of the puff pastry and press into an 8-inch pie pan. Poke the bottom of the pastry with a fork evenly throughout. Reserve the trimmings. Brush the egg white along the border of the circle and press the scraps of puff pastry along the side of the pan to create a crust. Scatter the goat cheese crumbles on top as the filling of the pie and then the caramelized onions. Layer the tomatoes on top in decorative circles. Season with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 20 minutes, then cover the edges of the pastry and bake until the veggies are soft and beginning to brown, 20 more minutes. Garnish with fresh basil.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Unroll the pastry and cut into 4 rectangles. Take a sharp knife and score a 1cm edge inside each rectangle, taking care that you don't cut all the way through the pastry. Place on a baking sheet.
• Spread 1 tbsp pesto onto each slice, staying inside the border, then pile up the peppers and artichokes. Cook in the oven for 15 mins until the pastry is starting to brown.
• Tear the mozzarella ball into small pieces, then scatter it (or use cheddar, if you prefer) over the veg. Return to the oven for 5-7 mins until the pastry is crisp and the cheese has melted. Serve with a green salad.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to a 10x14-inch rectangle and place on the prepared sheet. Score edges with a sharp knife, about 3/4 inch from the edge of the pastry, being careful not to cut all the way through the pastry. Inside the scored edges, prick several times with a fork. Brush pastry with beaten egg, reserving any unused.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
• Combine olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. When butter is melted, add chopped mushrooms and chopped onion. Cook until vegetables release their liquid, then continue cooking until the skillet is nearly dry, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Season onions and mushrooms with salt and pepper and stir in thawed and drained spinach and chopped tomatoes.
• Combine the remainder of the beaten egg, garlic and herb cheese spread, and cream in a small bowl. Gently brush cheese mixture over the partially baked puff pastry, staying inside the scored edges.
• Distribute the vegetable mixture over the cheese mixture and bake until the edges of the pastry are nicely browned and the cheese mixture is set, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan about 5 minutes.
• To serve, cut into serving pieces and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
