Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to 1/16 inch thickness and prick the surface with a fork.
Cut out approximately 30 circles using a biscuit cutter, 2 to 3 inches in diameter.
Arrange the pastry circles on the baking sheet, spacing them for even cooking.
Sprinkle approximately 1 teaspoon of grated Gruyère cheese on each circle, then top with thin slices of tomato.
Sprinkle kosher salt, ground black pepper, and chopped thyme on each tartlet.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the pastry is golden and flaky.
Cool for a few minutes before serving.
