Butternut Squash and Apple Tart
 
Makes 12 to 16 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 (4-ounce) package goat cheese, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
  • 1 (17.3-ounce) box frozen puff-pastry sheets, thawed
  • 4 Gala apples, cut into ¼-inch-thick slices
  • 1 large butternut squash neck, peeled, sliced into ¼-inch-thick circles, and blanched
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Garnish: feta crumbles, fresh sage
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat yogurt and goat cheese with a mixer at medium speed until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add egg, and beat to combine. Add sage, kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper; beat to combine. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use.
  3. Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface, roll 1 puff-pastry sheet to a 10x8-inch rectangle.
  4. Using a pastry wheel, cut rectangle in half to make 2 (10x4-inch) rectangles. Place rectangles on prepared baking sheets. Using a paring knife, gently cut an indentation in dough, making a ½-inch border along the inside of each rectangle, being careful not to cut all the way through. Repeat process with remaining puff-pastry sheet.
  5. Divide yogurt mixture between pastries, spreading to edges of indentations. Layer pastries with apples and squash; sprinkle with remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper and sea salt. Bake until light golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes. Garnish with feta crumbles and sage, if desired. Serve warm. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
