So I guess I’m all about the appetizers this week! Summer days mean simple cooking and I’m loving these quick recipes with all the best in-season produce. And let’s be real, who doesn’t love a peach Brie tart? It’s just a wonderful combination. So here’s the deal, it’s no secret that I love Brie. I’ve made cranberry brie tarts, cranberry brie pull-apart bread, pan fried brie, and even an artichoke and broccoli pesto brie panini. Ahh yeah, it’s safe to say I really love Brie. But something I haven’t done a lot of is Brie in the summertime. Enter these super, simple, easy tarts that are roll your eyes back delicious. Think melty brie, sweet peaches, and peppery honey infused with garden-fresh rosemary. Oh and “jammy” caramelized shallots. YUMMM.
Here’s how to make these summery peach Brie pastry tarts.
Like so many of my summer recipes right now, these tarts are quick, easy, and use plenty of summer produce. Now add in Brie and some store-bought puff pastry…for simplicity…and you’ll have delicious tarts in no time! Start with those jammy caramelized shallots. First, these shallots are SO GOOD. They add a lot of flavor to these tarts, so don’t skip them. If you love a caramelized onion, you’ll love caramelized shallots even more. They’re tangier, sweeter, and pair perfectly with the creamy Brie and sweet peaches. Cook the shallots down in a bit of olive oil, then add the apple cider vinegar. The vinegar helps to caramelize the shallots while also adding a bit of a tang.
Once your shallots have caramelized, it’s time to assemble. First, I like to cut my puff pastry into rectangles. Then spread on those shallots, add the brie, add a handful of fresh basil, and layer on the peaches. Just like with Monday’s prosciutto peach chicken, I used the peaches I received from Frog Hollow Farms. They are the sweetest peaches and so pretty. Do you see all the color they have? To be honest, it was their box of peaches that really inspired this recipe. I just wanted to use them in every way I could. Sweet cake on Friday, savory chicken on Monday. And today…it’s these cheesy tarts…a mix of both sweet, savory, and touch peppery. Favorite combination. So layer on those peaches, then bake.
Onto that peppered rosemary honey.
While the tarts are baking, make the honey. It’s very simple…honey, rosemary, and freshly cracked black pepper. Simple, but truly so delicious. I love the fragrant rosemary with the sweet honey. It’s the perfect balance. As soon as those pretty tarts come out of the oven, drizzle over the honey, top with a few basil leaves. Then enjoy them while they’re warm and melty. Absolutely nothing not to love…just so delicious!
I love turning these tarts into a light summer dinner with a big green salad (I leave out the sweet potatoes in the summertime). Best way to end a low key summery evening.
