BLUEBERRY CHEESE TARTLETS

Posted: September 24, 2021/Under: Desserts, Fruit, Omnia, Omnia Desserts/By: Galley Kat

Hello to you my Galley Friends. Here’s my situation. I’ve been invited to a friend’s place for bison burgers…a friend from Alberta who is a consummate carnivore. A bit of back story…we treated him a while ago to some water buffalo burgers (I made Juicy Lucys) and he wanted to return the favour. I offered to bring a side dish. Offer accepted. Then I thought maybe I could bring some dessert too so I offered peach pie because, thanks to my sister who told me she had made a fresh peach pie the other day and I couldn’t stop thinking about peach pie. Well, I have no confidence in making pie pastry. I’m working on perfecting it but haven’t quite reached the coming out stage. So why did I offer peach pie you might ask? Well, blame it on my sister.

So when the day came I caved and made this following treat instead. And if I can make this without a recipe and any idea of what I’m doing, I figured it was share-worthy for those who adore simple. And since we are still living in our camper, and always up for a good challenge, I made these on the stove top in my treasured Omnia Stove Top Oven.

I was so pumped about the results of my blueberry babies that I chopped a couple of fresh peaches and created a very delicious repeat performance (made this time in my land oven the day my daughter was out of the house for a meeting) and – voila! – fresh peach tartlets were born. It was that simple! Don’t you just love options?

Check back with me soon because I have a very interesting recipe for you that involves a cabbage that my daughter left in the fridge when they moved back to their home for the start of school. Cheap eats and delicious came together for this one and I’m confident you will enjoy it.

…peace and love….

Galley Kat Notes:

You can drizzle these with a mixture of powdered sugar and a smidge of milk or sprinkle with some white sugar but I found they were perfectly sweet as is.
