NOTES
Make sure your puff pastry sheets come right out of the refrigerator before baking.
Check for any leftovers in the fridge and use them for the topping. Use your imagination.
You can save your pizza tarts in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you wish to store them in the freezer, freeze them on a baking sheet and then place them in a container or plastic bag when they are solid.
Do not use any additional sauce toppings, like tomato sauce. If the puff pastry is too moist, it won't rise while baking and will become fluffy and crunchy.
When using frozen puff pastry dough, it's best to thaw it overnight in the fridge.
Freeze and thaw your puff pastry pizza bites only once.
The longer premade puff pastry sheets are stored in the fridge, the better they taste. Still, be mindful of the expiry date on the package.
