Appetizers on a festive table are no less important than the main dishes. Everything is important in appetizers: both appearance and taste. Guests will appreciate tartlets with cheese baked in the oven. The recipe is simple and does not take much time. If you want to give the appetizer a rich creamy taste, hard cheeses can be replaced with soft ones - mascarpone or Boursin.

How long can I store leftover cheese tartlets, and what's the best way to reheat them?

Leftover tartlets can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 160°C for 5-7 minutes to regain crispiness.

Can I make these tartlets gluten-free?

Serve warm as an appetizer with a side salad, or pair with a creamy soup for a light lunch. Garnish with fresh herbs for extra flair.

Can I freeze these cheese-filled tartlets for later use?

Yes, you can freeze unbaked filled tartlets for up to 1 month. Bake directly from frozen, adding 3-5 extra minutes to the cooking time.

What spices work well in the egg and mayonnaise mixture?

Try adding garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried herbs like thyme or oregano, or a pinch of cayenne for extra flavor.

How can I make this recipe lower in carbs?

For a low-carb version, use almond flour-based tartlet shells and increase the protein by adding more cheese or diced chicken instead of ham.

My tartlets are getting soggy. How can I prevent this?

Lightly pre-bake empty tartlet shells for 3-4 minutes before filling, and avoid overfilling with the wet mixture to maintain crispness.
