Time 1h15m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon butter
4 large onions, thinly sliced
3 pears, finely diced
2 cups crumbled blue cheese
¾ cup chopped walnuts
30 (2 inch) frozen miniature tart shells

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir onions until brown, soft, and sweet, 40 to 45 minutes. Let onions cool for a few minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Remove tart shells from freezer and place on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Combine caramelized onions with pears, blue cheese, and walnuts in a large bowl. Spoon pear-blue cheese filling into still-frozen tart shells.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is hot and melted and the pastry shells are lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm or cooled.

I've tried many pear and blue cheese tart recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is flaky and the filling is creamy and flavorful.
