Tomato Cheese Tart Tips

This Tomato Tart is a classic summertime dish using fresh tomatoes. It’s reminiscent of Tomato Pie if you’re familiar with that Southern favorite.

The recipe is incredibly flavorful and much easier to make than it looks. Doesn’t it look impressive? That’s why I like to make a tomato cheese tart when entertaining. Easy Cherry Danish is another impressive yet simple recipe.

What is a tart?

A tart is a baked dish consisting of a filling over a pastry base with an open top not covered with pastry. In a tomato cheese tart, the filling is made with delicious layers of cheese and tomatoes.

I prefer Gouda cheese for this recipe. Gouda is a mild, yellow cheese with a caramelly, nutty and buttery flavor. It’s a good cheese for melting and pairs wonderfully with tomatoes in a tart.

Finally, I highly recommend you serve this tart with fresh basil. Fresh basil is INCREDIBLE and pairs with tomatoes!

Tomato Cheese Tart Tips

  1. I recommend using a plum, Roma, or heirloom tomato. As well, you don’t want to use beefsteak tomatoes for your tomato cheese tart.
  2. You can use either cream cheese or ricotta cheese. Typically, I use cream cheese.
  3. Additionally, you can make a tart crust. I have the recipe listed below. However, you can also use a purchased pie crust. If you’re making this in a tart pan, get a refrigerated roll-out pie crust.
  4. Also, you can use filo dough (Also known as phyllo dough) or puff pastry as the crust.

Crust

  • Pulse flour, salt and sugar in a food processor to blend. Add butter; pulse with 12ish one-second pulses until mixture resembles coarse meal with pea-sized pieces. Add feta and process with a couple more pulses until incorporated. Transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle ice water over mixture. Using a fork, mix until the dough begins to come together. Using hands, form dough into a ball, press into a disc shape and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes or up to 2 days.

For the Tart

  • Preheat oven to 400ยฐ. Spray the tart pan with nonstick spray.
  • On a cool, flat and floured surface roll dough to a 13-inch circle. Transfer to the tart pan.
  • Beat eggs and salt. Add cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, Gouda cheese, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour cheese mixture into the pan and smooth evenly. Top with tomatoes. Sprinkle rosemary over the top.
  • Bake at 400ยฐ for 22 to 25 minutes or until bubbly and light brown on top.
