Cherry Tarts With Puff Pastry
These cherry tarts with puff pastry are full of delicious, healthy cherries. Instead of a traditional pie crust, these galettes have a flaky vegan puff pastry crust. They're super easy to make, requiring only 15 minutes hands-on time.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 2 cups cherries pitted and halved
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2½ tablespoon cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoon apricot jam +2 tablespoon of water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 C (400 F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Roll the puff pastry out into a rectangle that's ⅛ inch thick. Cut it into 8 equal sized pieces and transfer them to the baking tray. Put the tray in the fridge to chill.
- Destone the cherries and cut them in half.
- Stir together cherries, lemon juice and zest, maple syrup, vanilla, cornstarch and sea salt.
- Divide the mixture evenly between the puff pastry pieces. Pull the edges up and crimp into a rough circle. Brush the edges with water (or plant milk). Bake for 30-35 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through.
- Whisk together the apricot jam and 2 tablespoon of water. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. When the galettes have finished baking, drizzle the jam over the top of fruit filling. Serve with vegan ice cream!
