Cook time25 min

In a bowl, prepare the tart crust by mixing together the ricotta, chopped walnut halves, honey, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Cut the figs into even slices.
Cut the Brie into slices.
Place the puff pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and use a knife to create a small border, being careful not to cut all the way through the pastry.
Spread the ricotta mixture over the bottom of the tart, leaving the edge empty.
Layer the figs and Brie alternately.
Fold over the edge (you can flatten it slightly with a fork) and brush it with egg yolk to glaze it. Bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes at 370°F/190°C.
There you go! You can finish off the dish by drizzling on a little honey, sprinkling on a few more chopped walnuts, and drizzling on a little olive oil ;)
