Steps:
- Chill pie dough for about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on the lower oven rack.
- Slice heirloom tomatoes into 1/2-inch rounds. Remove seeds with your fingers. Place 6 slices on paper towels or a clean cloth and cover with more paper towels or another clean cloth. Arrange the remaining slices on a wire rack. Cut Roma tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices, remove seeds, and arrange them on the rack as well.
- Line a deep-dish, 9-inch pie plate with dough. Place 2 layers of aluminum foil over the entire surface. Fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake pie crust on the preheated baking sheet on the bottom rack. Place tomatoes on a higher rack. Reduce temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake until the bottom of the pie crust has lost its translucent raw look and the edges have just started to color, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Carefully remove the foil and the weights. Cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent them from burning. Poke the bottom of the pie crust with a fork to keep it from puffing up. Return the pie crust to the bottom rack and bake until the bottom starts to color, about 8 more minutes.
- Remove pie crust and allow to cool. Continue baking the tomatoes until they are wilted, about 40 minutes total. Remove and allow to cool. Keep the oven on.
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until some of the fat has rendered, about 5 minutes. Add sliced leek. Cook until bacon is crisp and the leeks have softened and browned, about 5 more minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and allow to cool.
- Place bacon-leek mixture, Cheddar, Fontina, mayonnaise, basil, egg, and mustard in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
- Spread 1/3 mixture on the bottom of the pie crust. Arrange 1/2 of the roasted tomatoes on top, overlapping heirlooms with Roma tomatoes. Spread another 1/3 of the mixture over the tomatoes and arrange the remaining roasted tomatoes on top. Add the last 1/3 of the mixture and gently press the fresh tomato slices on top in a decorative pattern. Arrange foil around the edges of the pie crust to protect them from burning, taking care that the foil doesn't touch the tomatoes.
- Bake until browned and bubbly on top, about 40 minutes. Cool completely before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In the pie shell, place the brown sugar, flour and salt.
- Mix with your fingers.
- Pour the evaporated milk over the flour and sugar, but do not stir or mix this in.
- Dot with butter, and sprinkle with cinnamon, liberally, over all.
- Bake for 50 minutes, or until the filling just bubbles up in the middle.
- The filling will never completely set, but that's the way it's supposed to be.
- This pie is better eaten at room temperature.
- If you refrigerate leftovers, reheat them in the oven before serving.
- NOTE: Recipe can be doubled and prepared in a 10-inch pie shell.
- For that size, bake 1 hour and 20 minutes.
Tips:
- For a flakier crust, use ice-cold butter and work it into the flour quickly until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Don't overwork the dough, as this will make the crust tough.
- If you're using a food processor to make the dough, pulse the ingredients until they just come together. Do not over-process.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
- When rolling out the dough, use a light touch and roll it out evenly. Do not over-roll the dough, as this will make it tough.
- Use a sharp knife or pastry wheel to cut out the dough. This will help prevent the dough from tearing.
- Bake the pies in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the crust is cooked evenly.
- Let the pies cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set.
