Recipe adapted from https://urbanfarmandkitchen.com/easy-tomato-galette-with-herbed-cream-cheese-and-zaatar/
Ingredients:
- 1 store bought or pre-made round Pie Crust (see original recipe for instructions on how to prepare Galette Dough)
- 4-5 Heirloom Tomatoes
- 6oz Herbed Goat Cheese (original recipe called for Herbed Cream Cheese, but we love using Coppertail Farm’s Goat Cheese!)
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1-2 TBSP Za’atar Spice
- 4-5 Thyme Sprigs
- Salt & Pepper
- Basil leaves
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Directions:
- Cut tomatoes into ¼” slices. Place sliced tomatoes on paper towel to absorb excess liquid. This will help make sure we don’t end up with a soggy galette. Allow your tomatoes to drain on the paper towel for at least 20 minutes.
- Take your herbed goat cheese out of the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature.
- Preheat your oven to 400F.
- Unroll pie crust onto parchment paper lined baking sheet. Spread goat cheese evenly, leaving about 1″ around the pie crust border uncovered.
- Arrange tomato slices & season with salt & pepper. Add thyme sprigs on top.
- Carefully fold the edge of the crust over itself to create a nice border that will hold in the ingredients as they bake.
- Brush the crust with egg yolk & sprinkle with za’atar spice.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven & allow to cool for 15 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves & olive oil.
