This rustic tomato galette recipe is a delicious way to use summer cherry tomatoes. Its simple, flaky butter pie crust is filled with ripe heirloom or Roma tomatoes, pesto and feta cheese. —Kate Wood, The Wood and Spoon

Ingredients

  • 2 Roma tomatoes, sliced 1/8 in. thick
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons prepared pesto
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • Dough for single-crust pie
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, divided
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves, optional

Directions

  • 1. Place tomatoes on a double layer of paper towels; sprinkle with salt. Cover with additional paper towels. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together pesto and mayonnaise. Preheat oven to 375°. On a floured sheet of parchment, roll dough into a 12-in. circle. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  • 2. Spread pesto mixture over crust to within 2 in. of edge; top with 1/4 cup feta. Arrange tomato slices over feta; arrange cherry tomatoes on top, cut sides up. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup feta, Italian seasoning and pepper. Fold crust edge over filling, pleating as you go and leaving center uncovered. In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush edge of crust with egg wash and sprinkle with Parmesan.
  • 3. Bake until crust is golden brown, 35-40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before slicing. If desired, top with basil before serving.
