To make your delightful Tomato Tartlets with Puff Pastry, follow these clear and easy steps:
Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
. Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into squares of about 4 inches each.
. Arrange Pastry on Baking Sheet: Place the pastry squares on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart.
. Add Toppings: Brush the squares lightly with olive oil. Layer each square with sliced tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and sprinkle with oregano, salt, and black pepper.
