Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the flour, olive oil, salt, egg yolk, and warm water to form a dough.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- After resting, divide the dough into four portions and roll each as thinly as possible.
- Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F) with both top and bottom heat.
- In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream and crème fraîche. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste.
- Slice the pumpkin (skin on) into thin strips, halve the onion, and cut it into rings, crumble the feta, and roughly chop the walnuts.
- Spread the sour cream mixture over the rolled-out dough, then layer with pumpkin, onion, feta, and walnuts.
- Place the tarts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Once done, sprinkle with thyme and optionally drizzle with honey for added sweetness.
Notes
Roll the dough as thin as possible for an extra crispy base. Use fresh thyme for a punch of flavor, but dried thyme works too. Don’t skip on the nutmeg; it adds a lovely warmth to the dish.
