Ingredients
- 1 package Pillsbury crescent dinner rolls (8 oz, 227 g; you can also use a frozen pie sheet)
- 8 oz Brie cheese (or cream cheese)
- ¼ cup preserves of your choice (I used mango chutney, apricot, and fig preserves)
- 1 large egg (50 g each w/o shell)
- 1–2 Tbsp water (or milk; less liquid for darker color)
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). For a convection oven, reduce cooking temperature by 25ºF (15ºC).
- Gently roll out 1 package Pillsbury crescent dinner rolls on a work surface. Use your fingers or a rolling pin to seal the seams and perforations, and press out.
- Use a 2½-inch round cookie cutter or biscuit cutter to cut out 24 circles.
- When you need to roll out the dough for the second time, you might need to sprinkle all-purpose flour on the surface to prevent the dough from sticking.
- Place the dough circles in the cups of an ungreased mini muffin tin. Press the dough against the bottoms and up the sides.
- With 8 oz Brie cheese, scoop ½–1 tsp Brie cheese and place in each cup.
- With ¼ cup preserves of your choice, put ½ tsp fruit preserves on top.
- Make an egg wash by whisking 1 large egg (50 g each w/o shell) and 1–2 Tbsp water (or milk). Brush the top of the pastry with the egg wash.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes or until the pastry is puffed, the cheese is bubbling, and the edges are lightly browned.
- Remove from the pan and let it cool for 5 minutes. Transfer the tarts to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or room temperature.
