Time 55m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box
1 large red apple, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
4 oz Gruyère cheese, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
3 tablespoons butter
2 shallots, finely chopped
3 tablespoons chopped pistachio nuts
2 tablespoons chopped sweetened dried cranberries
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Unroll pie crusts; roll each crust into 12-inch round. Using 3 1/2-inch round cutter, cut 10 rounds from each crust, rerolling dough if necessary. Press each round into ungreased regular-size muffin cup.
  • In medium bowl, mix apple and cheese cubes; set aside.
  • In 8-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots, cook 2 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Remove from heat; stir into apple mixture. Spoon heaping tablespoon apple-shallot mixture into each cup.
  • Bake 24 to 27 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Cool in pans 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups.
  • Meanwhile, in medium bowl, stir nuts, cranberries and thyme. Spoon about 1 teaspoonful nut mixture over each tart. If desired, garnish tarts with additional thyme sprigs. Serve warm or cool.

I'm not a fan of Gruyère cheese, so I used cheddar instead. The tarts were still delicious.

These tarts are perfect for a quick and easy dessert. I always keep a box of puff pastry in my freezer so I can make them at a moment's notice.

I love how versatile these tarts are. I've made them with different types of apples and cheeses, and they always turn out great. They're also a great way to use up leftover puff pastry.
