Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Tomato Pie Galette
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Slice heirloom and Roma tomatoes and combine with minced garlic, fresh basil, salt, black pepper, and olive oil in a bowl.
  4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface until about 12 inches in diameter. Spread half of the cheese on the dough, then layer with the tomato mixture and the remaining cheese.
  5. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, crimping to secure the filling.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly, slice into wedges, and serve warm or at room temperature.
