Tomato and Camembert Tart

A flaky pastry crust plays host to Gruyère and Camembert cheeses, sliced plum tomatoes, and a fragrant herb oil in this showstopping savory tart.
Recipe: Tomato and Camembert Tart

Ingredients

Tart Dough:
  • 1½ c. all-purpose flour
  • 6 tbsp. cold unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. coarsely ground pepper
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. water
Tart:
  • 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • ½ c. grated Gruyère cheese
  • 4 plum tomatoes
  • 6 oz. Camembert Cheese
  • ½ c. extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¼ c. fresh parsley
  • ¼ c. fresh basil
  • 1 tsp. fresh rosemary
  • 1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 small bay leaf
  • 1 clove garlic

Directions

  1. Make the tart dough: Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, combine the flour, butter, salt, and pepper until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  2. Using a fork, mix in 2 tablespoons of the oil and the water just until the bottom of the mixture begins to cling together. If necessary, add an additional tablespoon of oil.
  3. Gather into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for 30 minutes.
  4. Bake the tart: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Roll out the chilled dough into a 14-inch circle and place it into a tart pan; set aside.
  5. Spread the mustard over the bottom of the tart shell. Sprinkle the Gruyère evenly over the mustard and alternately place the tomato and Camembert over the Gruyère.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of extra-virgin olive oil, all of the herbs, and the garlic together and brush two-thirds of the mixture over the tart. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 35 minutes.
  7. Remove the tart and brush it with the remaining oil. Serve warm.
