Olivia’s Kitchen: End of Heirloom Season Tart

September 15, 2019 By Olivia Williamson Filed Under: Olivia’s Kitchen Tagged With: olivia williamson, olivia's kitchen, recipes

The end of the heirloom tomato season goes quite late into the fall and often provides delicious, but maybe not as pretty tomatoes. This super easy tart is an elegant and simple way to make use of those juicy, maybe a little over ripe, maybe a little banged up beauties.

Purchase an all butter frozen puff pastry like Dufour brand. Let it warm up a little from frozen, but not too soft.

Open the rectangle of dough and pull outward and up on the edges to create a little bit of a lip on the edge. Poke the inner part of the dough (not the lip) with a fork.

Slice the tomatoes thinly and layer them over the surface of the dough in a fish scale type pattern. Drizzle the tomatoes with olive oil and sprinkle some fresh herbs over the top such as basil or thyme.

Place into a 450 degree oven for approximately 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

Another tasty addition to this is to add fresh goat cheese either before cooking, or serve with a slice after. Serve with some nicely dressed fresh greens.
