Instructions
-
Roll out pie dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Gently transfer dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; press to fit snugly.
-
Trim dough so there’s a ½-inch overhang on all sides. Gently fold edges of dough under to create a slight lip of dough over the top of the pan on all sides.
-
Prick the bottom of the crust several times with a fork, being sure to not puncture all the way through. Place the prepared crust into the freezer for at least 30 minutes or until completely chilled.
-
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook for about 10 minutes until golden brown, stirring often. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
-
Mix Gouda, basil, mayonnaise, Cheddar, Parmesan, Dijon mustard, oregano, pepper, nutmeg, and salt together in a medium bowl. Stir in the cooled onion and garlic until completely combined.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Remove tart pan from the freezer. Gently spread the cheese mixture evenly over the bottom.
-
Place cherry tomatoes evenly over the top and gently press down. Place tart on a large baking sheet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 55 to 65 minutes until the crust is golden brown, cheeses are bubbly, and most of the tomatoes have burst.
-
Cool for 20 minutes. Gently remove the tart from the pan and place on a serving platter. Serve warm.
