Helpful Tips and Tricks to make Puff Pizza tartlets:

  • Make sure to preheat the oven at the desired temperature. If the oven is not hot enough, you may find the puff pastry will not rise very much. It will leave you with flat and soggy pizzas.
  • Do not use a watery tomato sauce or toppings that have lots of water in them, it will make the pizza soggy and mushy.
  • As in pizzas less is more so try not to overload the pastry with too many ingredients will weigh the pastry down and not rise properly making it mushy.
  • If you are using frozen puff pastry make sure you let it defrost before trying to cut it. If it is still frozen, it may crack and splinter when you cut it. Make sure your dough is as cold as possible before baking as it helps it to really rise.
