Total time: 
Serves: 30 tartlets
 
Ingredients
  • 1 recipe grandma's pie crust
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry (optional, I have also used white wine just fine)
  • ⅓ cup minced fresh basil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 cup crumbled fresh goat cheese
  • ⅓ cup tablespoons minced sun-dried tomatoes
  • ¼ cup tablespoons minced scallions
Preparation Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚.
  2. Roll out the pie dough just as you would for a pie but then take a round 2½ inch cookie cutter and cut out 30 rounds. Using a muffin pan turned upside down, place a dough round on top of each muffin cup and sort of shape the edges around it so it will make little cups and refrigerate for 5 minutes.
  3. Then bake at 350º until the crusts are dry and golden, about 15-20 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
  4. In a small mixing bowl combine the basil, garlic, pepper, goat cheese, tomatoes and scallions.
  5. Once the the pastry shells are cooled flip them over and spoon a generous teaspoon into each on and spread it as best you can.
  6. Combine the egg, milk and sherry in another small dish and pour about a tablespoon into each tartlet.
  7. Bake about 4-6 minutes longer until the egg is just set.
  8. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly, these are best fresh out of the oven!
