Bright, sun-ripened heirloom tomatoes meet flaky golden pastry in this effortless yet elegant tart. A creamy ricotta base is infused with lemon zest for brightness, layered with juicy tomatoes, and finished with fragrant fresh basil and our McEvoy Ranch Organic Basil Olive Oil. Perfect as a light lunch, picnic centerpiece, or a vibrant appetizer for warm-weather gatherings, it’s a celebration of peak-season produce in every bite.
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Score a ½-inch border around the edges with a knife to help create a raised crust.
Bake the pastry for 15 minutes or until golden and puffed.
In a small bowl, mix ricotta, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the baked puff pastry, keeping within the scored border.
Arrange heirloom tomato slices on top. Season with flaky salt and coarse ground pepper.
Add fresh basil leaves and drizzle generously with McEvoy Ranch Organic Basil Olive Oil before serving.
