Melt butter and olive oil in skillet over medium heat.

Using a round cookie cutter, cut circles of dough out of puff pastry and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Brush egg wash on each pastry circle then top each with a tomato slice in the direct center.
Next add caramelized onions on top of each tomato slice and sprinkle shredded cheese.
Bake for 16-20 minutes or until tarts are puffy and golden brown and cheese has turned golden and melty. Top with parsley and herbs if you would like. Cool for a few minutes then serve.
