Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
- 3 medium Fresh tomatoes
- 1 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess around the edges. Use a fork to prick the bottom of the crust to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
While the crust is baking, slice the fresh tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Lay the slices on a paper towel and sprinkle lightly with salt to help draw out excess moisture. Let them sit for 10 minutes, then gently pat them dry with another paper towel.
In a small bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and mayonnaise until well combined. Set aside.
Once the crust has cooled slightly, layer the tomato slices evenly across the bottom of the crust. Sprinkle with black pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces and scatter them over the tomatoes, covering evenly.
Spread the cheese and mayonnaise mixture over the basil and tomatoes, ensuring the top is completely covered.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
