Fig & Goat’s Cheese Tart

This 5-ingredient Fig & Goat’s Cheese Tart is the perfect balance of sweet and savoury. I don’t know about you, but for me, goat’s cheese has to be paired with fruit—or at the very least, a drizzle of honey—to balance its tangy flavour. This tart is incredibly easy to make, looks stunning, and tastes absolutely delicious. Scroll to the end for more goat’s cheese and fig recipes.

Ingredients:
For one tart

• Puff pastry

• 4 figs

• 50g goat’s cheese

• 30g creme cheese

• maple syrup

• olive oil

You also need a tart dish (mine was: 20 cm/8 inches)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).

2. Prepare the Figs:

   • Wash the 4 figs, dry them with kitchen paper, and slice them.

3. Shape the Pastry:

   • Roll out the puff pastry. Place your tart dish on the pastry and use a sharp knife to cut a circle around the dish. Grease the tart dish with olive oil, then place the puff pastry inside, pressing it gently to fit. Roll down the edges to create a rim.

4. Assemble the Tart:

   • Spread the puff pastry with 30g cream cheese, then crumble 50g goat’s cheese over it. Arrange the fig slices on top, then drizzle with maple syrup. Brush the rim of the pastry with olive oil.

5. Bake the Tarts:

   • Bake for about 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden and crisp.

6. Serving suggestions:

   Drizzle with extra maple syrup, if desired. Serve warm or cold. When served warm, it pairs beautifully with a scoop of ice cream.

   Enjoy!

One thing I’ve learned travelling is that the people who tell you that places are dangerous, mostly haven’t been there themselves. In most cases it’s just a matter of using your brain and not moving in unreasonable ways! Taking Ubers at night, not wearing flashy jewellery and not going to certain areas is a small trade of to me when that means experiencing beautiful countries like Brazil. I felt safe in Rio and I would recommend to anyone who asks me to go and visit. I’ll be back, that’s for sure! 🇧🇷 #travel #southamerica #brazil #rio #riodejaneiro #southamericatravel #traveltips

This breakfast wrap is simple but so delicious and contains 30d of protein. You can replace the avocado and tomato with any veggies of choice 🥰 Ingredients For one serving (625 kcal, 30g protein) - 4 eggs - 2 tbsp cream cheese - 1/2 tomato - 1/2 avocado - salt & pepper - 1 tsp butter Method 1. Heat a medium-sized frying pan over medium heat. Melt 1 tsp of butter and spread it around the pan. 2. Crack 4 eggs into a bowl, add 1/4 tsp salt and fresh ground pepper. Scramble the eggs with a fork until well beaten. 3. Pour the eggs into the pan and let them cook until the eggs start to set. 4. While the eggs are cooking, slice 1/2 tomato and 1/2 avocado into strips. 5. When the eggs are mostly set, carefully flip the egg to cook the other side (flip it onto a plate and slide back into the pan if needed - so the egg does not break). Allow it to cook for another minute or two. 6. Once the eggs are cooked, place them on a plate. Spread 2 tbsp cream cheese evenly over the egg. Add the tomato and avocado slices to the lower edge. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. 7. Roll the omelette like a wrap and cut it in half to serve.
