Ingredients

• Puff pastry - 200 grams
• Carrots - 150 grams, sliced
• Red onions - 100 grams, sliced
• Zucchini - 100 grams, sliced
• Cherry tomatoes - 100 grams, halved
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Maple syrup - 1 tablespoon
• Balsamic vinegar - 1 tablespoon
• Thyme - 1 teaspoon, fresh or dried
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced carrots and red onions, sautéing for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
3. Add the zucchini, cherry tomatoes, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until all vegetables are tender.
4. Stir in the maple syrup and balsamic vinegar, cooking for another 2 minutes until the mixture is well combined and slightly caramelized.
5. Remove the skillet from heat and let the vegetable mixture cool slightly.
6. Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to fit your skillet size, about 1-2 cm larger than the skillet.
7. Arrange the sautéed vegetables evenly in the skillet, then carefully place the rolled-out puff pastry over the vegetables, tucking the edges down inside the skillet.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes before inverting the tart onto a plate.
10. Slice and serve warm.
