The goat cheese filling is BEYOND! So easy to make but I know you’ll be subbing it into other recipes because it’s DELICIOUS!
The tart might look crazy — and time-consuming, but really it’s pretty simple! A vegetable peeler makes all the thin slices. From there, you arrange them in a giant roll. A little radio or TV in the background can make the whole thing effortless. My favorite part of the tart is the filling. When you mix goat cheese, lemon juice, salt, thyme, and minced garlic you get something that tastes like “WOW!” You can spread it on toast, veggies or eat it by the spoonful as I did.
I love the golden color of a pastry dough that uses egg yolk. And added bonus is it’s less crumbly! Roll the chilled dough out on a floured surface
Mix the minced garlic, lemon juice, thyme, salt, and pepper and set aside.
Just use a vegetable peeler to get those thin sliced for the spiral. It’s the easiest way and works quite well. It was hilarious making this pretty tart out of what looked like vegetable scraps destined for the compost pile Also…Have you EVER seen carrots that look so much like bacon??
I found it was easiest to make the core of the spiral on the cutting board and then transfer it to the prepared tart where it can be easily added to.
Once your tart is all filled out it’s ready for a good brushing of olive oil.
The tart is ready for the oven after a healthy sprinkle of sea salt, pepper and thyme. Rosemary might be a nice addition as well. If you’ve tried this tart then don’t forget to rate the recipe and let me know how you got on in the comments below, I love hearing from you!
But WAIT! What if this seems like too much work???
This is the little tart I made from the scrap pastry and left over goat’s cheese mixture. I layered a few bits of summer squash on top and sprinkled with olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme. It baked faster and was a delicious treat! Cheese Puffs Tomato Pizza
