Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 12 tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray, for the mini muffin pan
6 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
2 large eggs
1 sheet frozen puff pastry dough, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a mini muffin pan generously with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Set aside 12 pretty mushrooms slices. Put the rest of the mushrooms slices in a food processor and pulse until ground into small pieces, about 10 seconds. Add the Gorgonzola, flour, breadcrumbs, tarragon, basil, lemon zest, salt, pepper and eggs. Pulse until a thick paste is formed, about 30 seconds more.
  • Gently roll out the puff pastry to a 10-inch square. Use a 2 1/2-inch round cutter to cut 12 rounds of dough. Poke the rounds with a fork.
  • Lay 1 reserved mushroom slice in the bottom of each muffin cup. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture over the mushroom in each cup and top with a puff pastry round.
  • Bake until the puff pastry is golden brown, 25 to 28 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes in the pan before inverting the tartlets. Serve immediately.
