These summery Peach Brie Pastry Tarts with Peppered Rosemary Honey are my favorite last-minute appetizer, afternoon snack, or even light dinner. They’re quick, easy, and most importantly, everyone loves them! Puff pastry, caramelized jammy shallots, creamy brie, and fresh summer peaches, all baked together to create the perfect cheese-filled mini-tarts. Finish each tart off with a peppery rosemary honey for the perfect Brie tart that’s a delicious mix of sweet and savory.
So I guess I’m all about the appetizers this week! Summer days mean simple cooking and I’m loving these quick recipes with all the best in-season produce. And let’s be real, who doesn’t love a peach Brie tart? It’s just a wonderful combination.
So here’s the deal, it’s no secret that I love Brie. I’ve made cranberry brie tarts, cranberry brie pull-apart bread, pan fried brie, and even an artichoke and broccoli pesto brie panini. Ahh yeah, it’s safe to say I really love Brie. But something I haven’t done a lot of is Brie in the summertime. Enter these super, simple, easy tarts that are roll your eyes back delicious.
Think melty brie, sweet peaches, and peppery honey infused with garden-fresh rosemary. Oh and “jammy” caramelized shallots. YUMMM.
Like so many of my summer recipes right now, these tarts are quick, easy, and use plenty of summer produce. Now add in Brie and some store-bought puff pastry…for simplicity…and you’ll have delicious tarts in no time!
Start with those jammy caramelized shallots. First, these shallots are SO GOOD. They add a lot of flavor to these tarts, so don’t skip them. If you love a caramelized onion, you’ll love caramelized shallots even more. They’re tangier, sweeter, and pair perfectly with the creamy Brie and sweet peaches.
Cook the shallots down in a bit of olive oil, then add the apple cider vinegar. The vinegar helps to caramelize the shallots while also adding a bit of a tang.
Once your shallots have caramelized, it’s time to assemble. First, I like to cut my puff pastry into rectangles. Then spread on those shallots, add the brie, add a handful of fresh basil, and layer on the peaches.
Just like with Monday’s prosciutto peach chicken, I used the peaches I received from Frog Hollow Farms. They are the sweetest peaches and so pretty. Do you see all the color they have? To be honest, it was their box of peaches that really inspired this recipe. I just wanted to use them in every way I could. Sweet cake on Friday, savory chicken on Monday. And today…it’s these cheesy tarts…a mix of both sweet, savory, and touch peppery.
Favorite combination.
So layer on those peaches, then bake.
While the tarts are baking, make the honey. It’s very simple…honey, rosemary, and freshly cracked black pepper. Simple, but truly so delicious. I love the fragrant rosemary with the sweet honey. It’s the perfect balance.
As soon as those pretty tarts come out of the oven, drizzle over the honey, top with a few basil leaves.
Then enjoy them while they’re warm and melty. Absolutely nothing not to love…just so delicious!
I love turning these tarts into a light summer dinner with a big green salad (I leave out the sweet potatoes in the summertime).
Best way to end a low key summery evening.

Have made these multiple times for different events and they are a hit every single time! Since it is winter, would apples or another fruit work on this just the same? Thanks!
Hey Amy,
Wonderful!! I love to hear that this recipe always turns out well for you and thanks so much for making it so often! Sure, apples would be delicious! xx
The flavors are definitely WOW good! It says it serves 12. I cut 2 pastry sheets into 4 squares that is 8. Or am I missing something? Thanks Tieghan!
Hey Kimberley,
Happy Sunday!! I love to hear that this recipe was tasty, thanks a lot for making it! Lol, you’re correct! xxT
I’m a little confused with this recipe ….. it says to fold the puff pastry over , but the pictures show it open.
Also, what do you cook it on? Parchment paper , on an oven tray not lined ?
Thanks !
Hi Pamela,
Step 1 specifically says “Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.” For the pastry, you are only folding the edges of the pastry, you can view the photos above for reference. Please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Not exactly the flavor profile I was expecting, the amount of basil and rosemary seemed excessive and turned the flavor more towards straight up pizza
Hey Rebecca,
Thanks for giving the recipe a try, sorry to hear it was not enjoyed! Have a great Sunday! xx
I made this ystrdy for a party. It was AMAZING!!!! It was literally gone b4 I knew it. One of the girls actually said “It’s a party in my mouth”. I will certainly be making this one on repeat. Thanks Tieghan for another gr8 recipe 🙂
Hey Annmarie,
Awesome!! Thanks a bunch for making this recipe:) I am so glad it was enjoyed! Hope you’re off to a great Monday! xxT
These took more than 15 min of prep for sure but they were worth every minute of time. It helped that I cut the peach slices and made the caramelized shallots the day before. I brought these as an appetizer to a summer dinner party and they were perfect – visually beautiful, absolutely delicious, complex, unexpected – a real hit. I ended up cutting each puff pastry sheet into 9 pieces so we had 18 little tarts. Because we were just going across the street, I brought them over still warm but they were delicious at room temperature too. This recipe is a keeper, thank you for sharing it.
Hey Chris,
Fantastic!! I love to hear that this recipe was a winner, thanks for trying it out! Sorry these took longer than expected!! I hope you had a great holiday weekend!?
No apologies needed. They were worth every minute of time. So delicious!
Perfect appetizer or even a light dessert. Leftovers make an amazing breakfast fresh out of a toaster oven to get the cheese a bit melty again!
Hi Stephanie,
Awesome!! Love to hear that this recipe was a hit, thanks for making it and sharing your feedback!! 🙂
I love these tarts so much and making them again today! I’m also interested to buy one of your books, is this recipe mentioned in a particular one?
Hey Jessie!
So glad you have been enjoying these tarts:) This recipe is only located on the blog! xTieghan
I made these tarts for my parent’s 25th anniversary lunch and I got so many compliments on this recipe! The only thing was that most of the tarts had air pockets come up in the middle and all the ingredients spilled out! 🙁 Most could be salvaged but 2 of them didn’t make it. Might try poking holes in the puff pastry next time, because I’ll still definitely be making these again! Thanks Tieghan 🙂
Hi Nicole,
Happy Monday!! I love to hear that this recipe was enjoyed, thanks so much for giving it a go! So sorry to hear about the spillage! Air pockets would definitely help for next time. xxT
Has anyone used tinned peaches?
Hey Lucianna,
That should work well for you, just allow them to drain before using them! Please let me know if you give the recipe a try, I hope you love it! xTieghan
Ok, so I reallllllly want to make these for my daughters first birthday party (one sweet peach theme)… but because it’s October, I’m worried I won’t find good peaches for the recipe. Any chance these could be made with canned or frozen peaches?
I am dealing with the same thing would love to know!
I made these last weekend to raves! We ate half as appetizers before going out to a late dinner. I went to put the rest away later that evening and they were victims of a new ant infestation. Augh!! I hated throwing them away. I currently have a 1/2 batch in the oven for today’s lunch though. Yum!
Hey Jessica,
I am so glad to hear that this recipe was enjoyed, thanks so much for giving it a try! xTieghan
Made these last weekend and everyone loved them. Really quite simple and delicious … and I even made them ahead, kept them at room temperature but waited to add the honey/rosemary until I served them.
Hey Kathleen,
Thanks a lot for giving this recipe a try, I am delighted to hear that it was enjoyed! xTieghan
I made these but used flat breads instead of the puff pastry sheets. Can out perfect and it was a big hit.
Hey Lennore,
Fantastic! Love to hear that the recipe was enjoyed, thanks bunch for making it. Have the best weekend:) xTieghan
Hi Tieghan,
I am a super Fan of all your recipes! I’m thinking about making these for a block party…. how do you think they will stand up if not eaten right away? Thx!
Hey Maria,
I really think that these are best served warm. Here are some other snacks you might like that work well at room temp:

Thank you Tieghan! These look Amazing!
You bet!
Made as an appetizer for my MIL’s bday dinner and they turned out beautifully! They look intricate, but are quite simple to make. I was a tad worried the cheese would spill out in baking because I don’t quite fold the pastry enough, but didn’t happen! I used black peppercorn for the honey and dried rosemary.
Hey Thy,
Happy Sunday! I love to hear this recipe was enjoyed and I truly appreciate you giving it a try! xxTieghan
