List of Ingredients

â—¦ 1 ¼ pounds heirloom tomatoes, cut into ¼-inch-thick slices
â—¦ Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
â—¦ 1 refrigerated rolled piecrust from a (14.1-ounce) package
â—¦ 2 ounces sharp Cheddar, coarsely grated (about ½ cup)
â—¦ 1 tablespoon fresh basil or thyme, plus more for serving

Recipe

Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels. Arrange tomatoes on paper towels and lightly sprinkle with salt; let sit 10 minutes. Blot with paper towels.

Roll piecrust to a 12-inch circle on a piece of parchment paper. Slide paper and crust onto a baking sheet. Top with cheese and basil, leaving a 1 ½-inch border all around. Season with pepper.

Arrange tomatoes on top of cheese. Fold border of crust over tomatoes. Beat egg with 1 tablespoon water in a bowl; brush on top of crust. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with additional basil or thyme.
