Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 9 oz puff pastry thawed
- 2.5 tbsp olive oil divided
- 0.75 cup red onion thinly sliced
- 2 tsp garlic minced
- 2 cup eggplant thin rounds
- 1.5 cup zucchini thin rounds
- 1.5 cup yellow squash thin rounds
- 1 cup red bell pepper thin strips
- 1.5 cup Roma tomatoes thin rounds
- 1.5 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 0.75 cup ricotta cheese whole-milk
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated, divided
- 1.5 tsp fresh thyme leaves chopped
- 0.25 cup fresh basil chopped
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper freshly ground
- 0.25 tsp red pepper flakes optional
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Roll the puff pastry to roughly 10×14 inches. Transfer to the pan and prick all over with a fork.
- Stir ricotta with half the Parmesan, a pinch of salt and pepper, and a little thyme. Set aside.
- Whisk Dijon and tomato paste until smooth and spreadable.
- Toss eggplant, zucchini, squash, bell pepper, tomatoes, and onion with olive oil, garlic, remaining thyme, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Spread the mustard mixture over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border. Spoon and smooth the ricotta mixture over it.
- Arrange vegetables in alternating layers on top, slightly overlapping. Fold edges to form a rim.
- Brush the crust with a little olive oil and sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the tart.
- Bake 35–40 minutes until crust is deeply golden and vegetables are tender. Cool 10 minutes, scatter basil, slice, and serve.
Notes
Variation: Swap ricotta with crumbled goat cheese for tang, or add a few sliced olives before baking. To store, refrigerate slices in an airtight container up to 3 days; reheat at 350°F until crisp.
