Honey, Bacon and Cream Cheese Upside Down Puff Pastry Tart

Ingredients:

1 sheet store-bought puff pastry, thawed

5 tbsp honey

1 small shallot

5 tbsp whipped cream cheese

5 pinches of dried thyme

Crushed black pepper to taste

1 egg for egg wash

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.

Cut thawed puff pastry into 5 equal rectangles, set aside.

Spoon 1 tablespoon of honey on parchment paper to make 5 rectangle areas. Arrange 3-4 slices of shallots overtop of the honey and top with bacon bits, then top with 1 tablespoon of the whipped cream cheese into the center of each rectangle. Sprinkle thyme and black pepper over the filling and cover with a puff pastry rectangle. Use a fork to crimp the edges to adhere to parchment.

Brush the tops with egg wash and bake for 10 to 14 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Cool for about 2 minutes before flipping over with a large spatula.
