Ingredients You’ll Need

1 cup all-purpose flour: This is the base for your tartlet crust, providing structure. You can substitute with whole wheat flour for more fiber.
2 large eggs: They help bind the crust and add richness. If you’d like a vegan option, consider using flax eggs instead.
1/2 cup milk: This keeps the mixture moist and tender. Non-dairy options such as almond or oat milk work great as substitutes.

How to Make Galentine’s Brunch Foods: Savory Mini Tartlets

Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup milk. Whisk together until smooth. The mixture should have a slightly thick, but pourable consistency; it’s perfectly fine to use a whisk or fork for this task.

Heat the Skillet: Place a skillet on medium heat. Add a touch of oil or butter to the skillet, allowing it to heat up just until shimmering. This step ensures your crust gets that lovely golden brown finish. When the skillet is ready, you’ll feel a gentle warmth radiating.

Pour and Cook: Pour a generous portion of your mixture into the hot skillet, about 1/4 cup for each tartlet. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes or until you see bubbles forming on top and the edges are gold. Flip with a spatula to let the other side cook for another 2-3 minutes, making sure both sides are lovely and golden.

Assemble and Serve: Transfer cooked tartlets to a platter. You can fill them with your favorite toppings like cheese, vegetables, or even some crispy bacon. These savory bites can be enjoyed immediately while warm, allowing the fillings to ooze into every delicious nook and cranny.

Storing & Reheating

To store your leftover tartlets, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you wish to refrigerate them, place them in a container lined with paper towels to absorb any moisture—good for about five days. For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to three months. When ready to enjoy, simply reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes until heated through, although the texture may slightly change upon thawing. A light re-crisping in the oven can revive that delightful crunch.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Avoid overmixing the batter; a few lumps will keep the texture tender.
Ingredients at room temperature yield fluffier results, so consider letting your eggs and milk warm up before mixing.
To ensure even cooking, keep the skillet at a steady medium heat. Adjust as necessary; too hot, and they might burn.
Feel free to experiment with herbs and spices in the mixture, like adding a teaspoon of garlic powder or fresh chives for extra flavor.
Make a big batch and fill them with different toppings for a fun brunch spread!
