Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 egg (beaten)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Black olives (sliced for decoration)
- Optional: fresh herbs (like basil or parsley) for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into circles to fit into your tartlet or muffin tins.
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, beaten egg, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Assemble Tarts: Place the pastry circles into the greased tartlet tins. Fill each pastry with the ricotta mixture, smoothing the tops.

- Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is set.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tins. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- You can make the tarts ahead of time and reheat them before serving.
