Preparation

Cooking
- Dough.
- Prepare homemade rough puff pastry dough through 2nd refrigeration.
- If using store-bought frozen puff pastry, make sure it’s thawed.
- Keep either dough in the refrigerator until step 4 below.
- Topping.
- Over low-medium heat in a large skillet, cook oil and butternut squash together for 5 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Add mushrooms, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, and nutmeg.
- Cook until vegetables are soft, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Set aside.
- On a lightly floured work surface using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll pastry dough into a 10×16-inch (41cm) rectangle.
- (Tip if using store-bought—place the edge of one sheet over the other and use a rolling pin to adhere them together.
- Roll the whole thing out into a 10×16-inch rectangle.) Carefully transfer dough to lined baking sheet.
- If dough has lost shape, use your hands to reshape into a rectangle.
- Fold over a 1/2-inch (5cm) edge and crimp the edges down with a fork.
- Crimping is much easier the colder the pastry is, so place dough/baking sheet into the refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes if needed.
- Egg Wash & Assemble.
- Brush egg wash all over puff pastry including the edges.
- Use a fork to poke holes all over the dough (not the crimped edge).
- Sprinkle with 3/4 cup (about 95g) cheese.
- Spoon vegetable topping over cheese and arrange in a single layer as best you can.
- Bake tart for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle remaining cheese all over the top.
- Return to the oven and bake for 5-8 more minutes or until cheese is melted and pastry is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and, if desired, garnish with flaky sea salt, a sprinkle of pepper, and/or extra cheese and herbs.
- Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
- Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat in the microwave or cover and bake in a 300°F (149°C) oven for 10-15 minutes.
