Bacon jam tartlets are officially the easiest and most addictive appetizer of the summer.

The crispy shell filled with sweet and savory bacon jam, warmed up just enough to get all gooey, and topped with a roasted slice of cherry tomato makes every bite a variety of textures and flavors. These perfectly poppable bite-size tartlets are impossible not to fall head over heels for. They are sweet and savory with just the right amount of acid from the tomato. Not to mention they are packed with your favorite ingredient… BACON.

You are only 10 minutes away from bacon jam tartlet perfection. It doesn’t get any better than that!

INSTRUCTIONS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or a large Silpat. Add the fillo shells to half of the large baking sheet. On the other half, lay out the slices of cherry tomatoes.

Add approximately ½ to 1 Tbsp of bacon jam to each phyllo shell. Bake the tartlets and the cherry tomatoes for 15 minutes. Top each tartlet with a slice of roasted cherry tomato before serving. Serve warm.
