Method

Prep the ingredients

  • Preheat the oven to 200 °C/180°C fan.
  • Prep the ingredients - pick the thyme leaves. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Construct the tart

  • To layer the tart: Line a baking sheet with greaseproof parchment then drizzle over the maple syrup and a dash of oil. Scatter over the fresh thyme then lay on the Finnebrogue Guinness Premium Unsmoked Back Bacon Rashers. Pop some cherry tomato halves between the rashers then place on the goats cheese slices.
  • To finish the tart: Spread the onion chutney in an even layer onto the pastry sheet, make sure to leave a 2cm gap all year round. Gently lay the pastry on top of the bacon then press the edges against the tray.
  • Brush the pastry with the beaten egg, then bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until golden.
  • Leave to cool for 5 minutes then use a board to flip the tart over, gently peel off the parchment. Scatter over the fresh chives, then slice up and serve.
