Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 sheet (half of a 17.3-oz. package) puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 1/4 cups shaved Parmesan cheese (about 3 1/2 oz.)
  • 1/2 tart green apple, cored and thinly sliced
  • 2 thin slices prosciutto (about 1 oz.), cut into 1/4-in. strips

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment. On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry out to a 10-inch square and transfer it to the baking sheet.

  2. Use a fork to pierce the pastry all over. Put the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400°F.

  4. Sprinkle about 3/4 cup of the cheese on the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with the apple, prosciutto, and remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.

  5. Bake the tart until almost golden, about 20 minutes.

  6. Sprinkle on the fennel seeds and bake until golden, about 5 minutes.
