Notes

These tartlets are best served warm and can be served with a fresh salad or alongside a selection of dips. Drizzling more spicy honey on top before serving enhances the flavor. If you have leftovers, let them cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, place back in the oven for a few minutes until warm and crisp again.
