How to Make Galentine’s Brunch Foods : Savory Mini Tartlets
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup of milk. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined—I like to use a whisk for a nice, airy blend.
Preheat Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. It’s essential to get it hot enough to create a crispy outer layer without burning.
Cook Tartlets: Pour a small amount of the batter into the hot skillet, just enough to form a mini tartlet. Cook until the edges are golden and the center bubbles slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip Carefully: Using a spatula, gently lift the tartlet and flip it over to cook the other side, ensuring it browns evenly. It should take another 2 minutes or so. You want those golden brown edges for that perfect crunch!
Repeat Cooking: Keep adding and cooking the batter in small batches, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid browning too quickly. Enjoy the fragrant scent of cooking batter wafting through your kitchen—it’s pure bliss!
Serve & Enjoy: Once your mini tartlets are cooked to perfection, arrange them on a platter. You can offer a selection of dips or toppings to go with them, enhancing their appeal even more!

Storing & Reheating
Store leftovers at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you’d like them to last longer, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days. You can freeze these tartlets for up to 3 months. When ready to use, reheat them in an oven set to 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. This will refresh their crisp texture, making them taste freshly made again, although they may be slightly less crispy upon reheating.
Chef’s Helpful Tips
- Avoid over-mixing the batter as it can make the tartlets tough. Gently mix until just combined.
- For extra flavor, consider adding herbs or spices to your batter, such as dried oregano or garlic powder.
- Timing is key! Keep an eye on the skillet, as cooking duration may vary depending on the heat.
- For a creamy filling, add cheese into the batter or sprinkle on top while cooking.
- Make the batter in advance and store it in the fridge for up to a day for easy brunch prep.
Savory Mini Tartlets are a treat that will not only impress your brunch guests but also keep them coming back for more. With their crunchy texture and savory toppings, they create a perfect centerpiece for your Galentine’s brunch. Don’t shy away from experimenting!
