Nutrition Facts : Calories 66 g, Fat 4 g, Fiber 2 g, Protein 1 g

Tips:

  • To ensure a flaky crust, use a food processor to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can result in a tough crust.
  • To prevent a soggy crust, pre-bake the pie shell before filling it. This will help to create a barrier between the crust and the filling, preventing the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best results. If your tomatoes are not very flavorful, you can add a tablespoon of sugar to the filling to help bring out their sweetness.
  • For a more flavorful pie, use a variety of onions, such as yellow onions, red onions, and shallots. You can also add other vegetables to the filling, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
  • Top the pie with a layer of cheese before baking. This will help to brown the crust and add a delicious cheesy flavor to the pie.

Conclusion:

Layered Tomato Onion Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The flaky crust, flavorful filling, and cheesy topping make this pie a hit with everyone who tries it.
