Buffalo Blue Puff Pastry Tartlets With Pears, Fig & Honey Chutney and Chopped Walnuts Recipe

By Katie Bell
Prep time: 20
Cook time: 20
Servings: 18 Canapes / 6-8 starters

Ingredients

  • 140g Buffalo Blue
  • 2 Pears
  • 2 Puff pastry sheets
  • 18 walnuts, chopped (optional)
  • 1 jar of Fig & Honey Chutney (195g)
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200 C degrees.
  • Unfold puff pastry sheet and cut into your desired number of pieces (18 canapes or 6-8 tarts)
  • Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Placing each about an inch apart.
  • Score a crust about a half inch from the edge of each tart, and using a pastry brush, paint the beaten egg just across the outer crust of each.
  • Spread a small spoonful of the chutney across the centre of each, keeping it within the scored lines.
  • Place 4-5 thin slices of pear in the centre of each, overlapping them like a fan.
  • Divide the cheese between the tarts, gently pressing it into the pears to ensure that it stays put. Sprinkle over the chopped walnuts (if using).
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes (slightly less if making canapes) or until the edges are golden brown and the puff pastry is cooked through. Enjoy!

Notes

Tips:

You can use slightly under ripe pears for this recipe as baking them will help soften them.

Ensure your puff pastry is fridge cold to allow it to rise properly
