For a deeper flavor, try using a variety of apples, such as Honeycrisp or Fuji, in addition to Gala. If you don't have hot honey, you can substitute regular honey with a pinch of red pepper flakes. These tarts are best served immediately while the pastry is still warm and crisp. Experiment with different types of cheese, such as goat cheese or Camembert, for a unique twist.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (5 minutes)
02
Step
2 mins
In a small bowl, whisk together the fig jam, hot honey, and chopped rosemary until well combined. (2 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
On the prepared baking sheet, spread 1 teaspoon of the fig mixture into each of the six 3x2-inch rectangles, spacing them about 2 inches apart. (5 minutes)
04
Step
7 mins
Arrange approximately 7 apple slices in an overlapping pattern over each rectangle of fig mixture. Top each with 2 slices of Brie. (7 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Gently roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet to slightly enlarge it. Cut the pastry into six 3 1/4 x 4 1/2-inch rectangles. Prick each rectangle all over with a fork to prevent excessive puffing. (5 minutes)
06
Step
5 mins
Carefully place one pastry rectangle over each of the fig-apple-Brie rectangles. Gently stretch the pastry if needed to fully cover the filling, and press the edges to seal. (5 minutes)
07
Step
3 mins
Brush the top of each pastry rectangle with the beaten egg to create a golden-brown crust. (3 minutes)
08
Step
25 mins
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky. After 16 minutes, lightly cover the tarts with foil to prevent the tops from burning. (25 minutes)
09
Step
2 mins
Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Serve immediately, drizzled with additional fig mixture and sprinkled with fresh rosemary, if desired. (2 minutes)
