Directions

  1. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out each puff pastry sheet on lightly floured surface to 11-inch square. Using 5-inch-diameter cookie cutter or bowl, cut out 4 rounds from each pastry sheet, forming 16 rounds total. Divide 8 pastry rounds between prepared baking sheets; pierce rounds all over with fork. Using 3 1/2-inch-diameter cookie cutter or bowl, cut out smaller rounds from center of remaining 8 rounds (reserve 3 1/2-inch rounds for another use), forming eight 5-inch-diameter rings.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  5. Mix cheese, lemon juice, and salt in bowl; spread mixture inside rings on frozen pastry rounds. Overlap apple slices atop cheese.
  6. Mix butter and 1/4 cup honey in small bowl; brush over apples.
  7. Sprinkle with allspice.
  8. Bake until apples are tender and pastry is golden, about 35 minutes.
  9. Place tartlets on plates.
  10. Drizzle 1 tablespoon honey over each and serve warm or at room temperature.
  11. Bake the tartlets four to six hours ahead, then store them uncovered at room temperature. Rewarm in a 350°F oven for five to ten minutes.
