Ingredients
  

1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed)

2 ripe peaches, sliced

8 oz Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into thin slices

2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)

A pinch of salt

Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Balsamic glaze, for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). To prepare your baking surface, line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Puff Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the thawed puff pastry to remove any creases. Using a sharp knife, cut the pastry into four equal squares, each approximately 4 inches by 4 inches.

      Score the Edges: Carefully score a 1/2-inch border along the edge of each square, using your knife. Be careful not to cut all the way through; this technique will help form a raised border when the tarts bake.

        Place the Tarts: Transfer the scored pastry squares onto the prepared baking sheet. To maintain a flat surface while baking, prick the center of each square with a fork.

          Add Brie Cheese: Inside the scored borders on each tart, evenly arrange the sliced Brie cheese, covering the center area well.

            Layer the Peaches: Next, artistically layer the sliced peaches over the Brie, ensuring to distribute the slices evenly across all tarts. Enhance the flavors by sprinkling a pinch of salt, a few cracks of black pepper, and the chopped rosemary on top.

              Drizzle with Honey: For an added hint of sweetness, drizzle each tart generously with honey, allowing it to seep into the layers.

                Egg Wash: With a pastry brush, coat the borders of each pastry tart with the beaten egg. This will give your tarts a beautiful golden sheen when baked.

                  Add Brown Sugar (Optional): For those who crave a sweeter profile and a bit of crunch, sprinkle a small pinch of brown sugar over the peach slices before baking.

                    Bake the Tarts: Carefully place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the tarts for 18-22 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and turns a lovely golden brown.

                      Cool and Drizzle: Once baked, remove the tarts from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Just before serving, elevate the flavor by drizzling balsamic glaze over each tart, adding a delicious tang that contrasts beautifully with the sweetness.

                        Serve: Indulge in these delightful tarts while they’re still warm. They are perfect as an appetizer or a sweet ending to any meal!
