Rustic Tomato Galette Recipe

I’m a firm believer that the key to brightening up a chilly day inside is cooking, but turning food into art can help pass the time (and makes excellent photos for your Instagram feed). That’s why we were blown away by @evolvingautumn’s rustic tomato and cheese tart. She made a crust from scratch, topped it with Garlic & Fine Herbs fauxmage, and then beautifully arranged multi-coloured tomato slices to create a gorgeous rainbow effect.

Ingredients:⠀⠀⠀⠀

Crust:

• 3/4 cup warm water

• 4g active dry yeast

• 1 flax egg

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 226g white flour⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Filling:

• 1 package Fauxmagerie Zengarry Garlic & Fine Herbs cashew cheese

• 680g sliced tomatoes, sorted by colour if you’d like

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• Salt & pepper

• Fresh basil ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. Add water and yeast to a large bowl and let sit for 5 minutes or until yeast is dissolved.

3. Stir in egg/flax egg and olive oil.

4. Stir in flour until well combined. Shape dough into a ball, cover bowl with plastic wrap, and let dough rise for 20 minutes.

5. Using plastic wrap or floured hands, press dough out onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

6. Spread on soft cheese of choice and layer tomatoes. Fold over sides of dough, about an inch. Top with olive oil, salt and pepper.

7. Bake 30-35 minutes or until crust is golden and tomatoes are wilted.

8. Remove from oven, top with basil and enjoy!
