Alsatian Cheese Tart

This Alsatian cheese tart is a simplified take on the classic French flammekueche, using a buttery puff pastry base for a light and flaky finish. The topping combines smooth cottage cheese and soured cream, creating a tangy, savoury base that perfectly complements the smoky bacon and softened onions. It is a wonderful way to enjoy traditional continental flavours with minimal preparation time in your own kitchen.

As a high-protein snack or a sophisticated starter, this tart is ideal for sharing at casual gatherings or serving alongside a crisp green salad for a midweek meal. The combination of creamy textures and salty bacon makes it a crowd-pleasing dish that feels indulgent yet remains surprisingly wholesome. For the best results, serve it warm from the oven while the pastry is at its crispest.

Ingredients for Alsatian Cheese Tart

  • 1 puff pastry sheet (from a 17 1/110g package), thawed

  • 120ml whole-milk cottage cheese

  • 60ml soured cream

  • 1/4 teaspoons salt

  • 1/4 teaspoons black pepper

  • 6 bacon slices (170g), cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 50g packed thinly sliced onion

  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan

How to make Alsatian Cheese Tart

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 204°C.

Roll out pastry on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 12-inch square, then transfer to a large baking sheet.

Blend cottage cheese, soured cream, salt, and pepper in a blender until smooth.

Cook bacon in a 10-inch skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until it just begins to brown, about 5 minutes. (Bacon should be tender, not crisp.) Remove from heat.

Spread cheese mixture evenly over pastry, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Scatter bacon and onion on top, then sprinkle with parmesan. Bake until pastry is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cut into 36 pieces and serve warm.
