Instructions
Line the baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400º F. Use a rolling pin to roll out puff pastry slightly and seal any cracks. Spread apple butter out into an even layer leaving a 1” border around the edges. Top with sliced brie and apples. Add sliced bacon and thyme leaves, making sure they are spread evenly.
Drizzle toppings with olive oil and sprinkle with black pepper. Fold the edges in to create a crust. Combine egg with a teaspoon of water and brush onto the crust.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is a deep golden brown and the bacon is starting to crisp. Let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
If you’re using crescent rolls: line the triangles up in alternating directions to create a rectangle and be sure to use the rolling pin to seal up any cracks between the sections.
If you don’t have maple bacon, toss bacon in 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup and let it marinate for 20-30 minutes. Strain the excess syrup before adding it to the tart.
If you want your crust to be a perfect golden brown, the bacon will be a little less crisp, so bake to your discretion.
To store leftovers: add to a zip lock bag or airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
