Best 5 Summer Tomato And Ricotta Tart With Oat Pastry Recipes

TOMATO RICOTTA TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly spray 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, pine nuts, salt, baking powder, and pepper. Pulse to combine.
• Combine olive oil and water in a small measuring cup then, with the food processor on, add the liquid through the chute and process until dough is crumbly and just coming together.
• Sprinkle the dough into the prepared 9-inch pie pan and gently press with your fingers into an even layer on the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 10 minutes then remove from oven and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine ricotta, egg, garlic, salt, 1/4 of the chopped basil, and 1/4 cup of the gruyere cheese. Mix to combine then pour into an even layer in the pie pan with the crust.
• Arrange tomato slices in a circular pattern over the ricotta mixture, slightly overlapping. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of gruyere cheese on top.
• Bake for 25 minutes until cheese on top is melted and filling is set.
• Let stand for 10 minutes, sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of chopped fresh basil, then slice to serve.
• Serve warm. This can be kept for up to a week, covered in the refrigerator, and reheated in the microwave.

RUSTIC TOMATO AND RICOTTA TART

Steps:

• Make the dough: In the bowl of a mixer, blend the flour, sugar, and lemon zest at low speed. Add the butter and continue blending at low speed until the mixture is coarse and sandy-looking. Add the egg mixture and blend just until the mixture comes together. Form into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• On a floured surface, roll the dough out to a rough circle, about 14 to 15 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. All around the edge of the crust, fold in the outer half-inch to form a rough, "rustic" edge to the tart.
• Filling: In a small mixing bowl whisk together the ricotta, egg white, sugar, and lemon zest. Using a rubber spatula, gently spread the ricotta filling over the bottom of the tart. Then arrange the tomato halves in concentric circles, cut side up, over the ricotta. Drizzle the honey over.
• With a pastry brush, brush the tart edge with milk. Sprinkle it with coarse sugar. Bake until fruit is tender and the underside of the tart is browned, about 25 to 30 minutes.

SUMMER TOMATO AND RICOTTA TART WITH OAT PASTRY

Steps:

• For the pastry:
• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the oats, chia seeds and salt in a food processor and process for 1 minute or until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the flour and almond meal and pulse to combine.
• Place the oil and water in a small jug and whisk to combine. With the food processor running, gradually add the oil mixture to the oat mixture and process until well combined but still crumbly.
• Spoon the pastry into a 24cm-based 3cm-high (9½ in x 1 in) round loose-based fluted tart tin and press firmly over the base and sides until smooth. Prick the pastry base all over with a fork and bake for 20 minutes or until light golden.
• For the filling:
• While the tart shell is baking, place the ricotta, lemon zest, Parmesan, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine.
• Allow the tart shell to cool completely before carefully lifting it from the tin. Place on a serving plate and fill with the ricotta mixture. Top the tart with the tomato and basil. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and slice into wedges to serve.

TOMATO-RICOTTA TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a 9-inch springform pan, toss breadcrumbs with olive oil; press evenly into bottom.
• In a bowl, whisk ricotta with Parmesan, eggs, and basil; season generously with salt and pepper. Spread over crust; arrange tomatoes on top. Brush with olive oil.
• Bake until tomatoes are almost dry, 35 to 45 minutes; let cool. Unmold. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED TOMATO TART WITH RICOTTA AND PESTO

Steps:

• Line a large baking sheet with paper towels. Set the sliced tomatoes on top in a single layer. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Use it to season the tomatoes evenly on both sides, cover with another paper towel and let sit, 15 minutes, allowing the salt to draw moisture out of the tomatoes.
• As the tomatoes sit, heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the middle of the oven. Working on a large sheet of parchment paper, roll out the puff pastry into a 9-by-11-inch rectangle, trimming any uneven edges. Prick the inside with a fork every few inches, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Using a pastry brush, coat the center of the puff pastry with the crème fraîche, leaving the border unbrushed.
• Working within the border, layer the tomatoes and red onion on top of the tart, allowing them to overlap slightly. Transfer to a sheet pan and bake, rotating halfway through, until puff pastry is browned and puffed, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Sprinkle tomatoes with Aleppo pepper, if using. Dollop with fresh ricotta. Thin pesto with olive oil until it reaches the proper consistency for drizzling; drizzle on top of tart to taste. Top with basil, if using, and serve warm or at room temperature.
