These are a delicious low-fat fall treat! They are a perfect snack or even a fancy appetizer. If serving as an appetizer I usually serve with a jam dipping sauce. Preparation for these is small but they do take quite a while in the oven. I usually just make them the night before.
This is a quick and easy app for any occasion. When I made them I used a jar of olive tapenade but, it is also an easy thing to make.
These take some work to make but they are worth it. If you would like a shortcut, just use store bought pastry dough. I usually serve these with sour cream and guacamole.
