As I mentioned the other day, I am always looking for new appetizers. After making the Bacon Basil Tarts, I was hooks! The best part is that they are so small, you can easily make a variety of types of tarts and the best part: you can eat each one! So far, I have two variations, from the original recipe. I plan to make many more, so be prepared for quite a few tart recipes. The crusts are the same but the fillings are different. This recipe has a cheesy filling which is topped by caramelized onions and bacon. Give it a try and tell me what you think!
Caramelized Onions and Bacon Tarts
Ingredients for Filling:
1/4 cup of ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella
2 tablespoons of diced provolone
1 egg
parsley
salt and pepper
Ingredients For Topping:
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 slice of bacon, diced
Directions:
- In a skillet, medium heat, caramelize onions with bacon. Allow to cool
- Combine all ingredients for filling
- Preheat oven to 375 F
- Prepare crusts, as described in my Mini Bacon Basil Tarts recipe
- Place about 1/2 tablespoon of cheese filling, into crust
- Top with caramelized onions and bacon
- Bake for 15 minutes
Enjoy!

Ricotta, caramelized onion and bacon, this will definitely get my attention
I love creamy, salty, sweet combos 🙂 I hope you try this and enjoy it!
Cheese, bacon and caramelized onions? The combination sounds out of this world! With its petite sizes, i might have to go for seconds for this.
🙂 Love small bites of foods. You get to try a variety and not feel so guilty lol 🙂 Have a wonderful day!
Did someone say bacon? I came right over Samina girl lol. These caramelized onions and bacon tarts really do look like a crowd pleaser, I know my family would eat these in record time lol. So you know I’m making these. I hope you’re having an amazing day so far *HUGS*
Bacon makes the world go round 🙂 My husband and I like to try different types of bacon too. I recently got my hands on some duck bacon lol
