For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a pinch of dried oregano to the tomato layers.
Feel free to experiment with different cheese combinations! Gruyere and thyme, or Parmesan and rosemary, would also be delicious.
To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, you can brush it with a lightly beaten egg white before adding the tomato filling.
For best results, use ripe, flavorful tomatoes.

    Easy to follow recipe and a great way to use up summer tomatoes!

  • Jaylin Crona

    I substituted goat cheese for the Cheddar, and it was amazing! The tanginess of the goat cheese complemented the sweetness of the tomatoes perfectly.

  • Marcel Huels

    I added a layer of caramelized onions to the bottom of the crust, and it took this pie to the next level!

  • Maegan Zboncak

    This recipe is a winner! The crust was perfectly crisp, and the filling was bursting with fresh tomato flavor.
