Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked refrigerated or homemade pie crust
- 6 medium tomatoes, sliced ¼-inch thick (about 2 pounds)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 ounces sharp white Cheddar cheese, shredded (1 packed cup)
- 4 ounces Gruyère cheese, shredded (1 packed cup)
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup finely chopped yellow onion
- ¼ cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves, plus more whole leaves for garnish
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (preferably Louisiana Brand)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper, plus more for tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs)
Steps
- Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in lower third position.
- Place piecrust dough in a 9-inch pie plate; trim excess dough, and crimp edges.
- Line piecrust using a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil, fully covering crust and edges.
- Fill piecrust to rim using pie weights or dried beans.
- Place piecrust on a rimmed baking sheet; bake in preheated oven until edges are light golden brown, about 12 minutes.
- Remove baking sheet from oven, and carefully remove parchment paper and pie weights from piecrust.
- Return baking sheet with piecrust to oven, and bake at 425°F until bottom of piecrust is dry to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove from oven; transfer piecrust to a wire rack, and let cool slightly, about 30 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
- While piecrust bakes, place tomato slices on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle evenly with salt, and let stand for 30 minutes.
- Firmly pat tomatoes dry using additional paper towels.
- Stir together cheeses, mayonnaise, onion, basil, hot sauce, and black pepper in a medium bowl until combined.
- Spread half of cheese mixture (about 1 ¼ cups) in cooled piecrust.
- Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the panko.
- Top with half of tomatoes, overlapping, if needed.
- Repeat layers, ending with remaining tomatoes.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of black pepper.
- Bake pie at 350°F until lightly browned, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool 2 hours before slicing.
- Garnish with whole basil leaves.
