These caramelized onion tartlets were a disappointment. The onions were not caramelized enough and the crust was soggy. I would not recommend this recipe.

I tried making these tartlets last night and they turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a little less salt in the filling. Otherwise, they were perfect.

OMG, these tartlets are amazing! The caramelized onions are so sweet and flavorful, and the crust is perfectly crispy. I could eat these every day.

These caramelized onion tartlets were a hit at my last dinner party! The onions were perfectly caramelized and the crust was flaky and delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.
