Time 2h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup whole wheat flour
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup butter
1 egg
3 tablespoons sour cream
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 zucchini, coarsely grated
1 sprig fresh thyme, leaves stripped
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 egg
10 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon bread crumbs
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
6 tablespoons pine nuts

Steps:

  • Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup butter, 1 egg, sour cream, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl; knead until dough comes together. Shape dough into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Roll out dough into a 10-inch circle on a lightly floured work surface.
  • Grease a 9-inch tart tin with 1 teaspoon butter. Press dough into the tart tin. Trim edges with a sharp knife. Place crust in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add zucchini; cook and stir until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.
  • Mix ricotta cheese and 1 egg together in a bowl. Fold in zucchini and Parmesan cheese gently.
  • Sprinkle bread crumbs over chilled crust; cover with prosciutto slices. Spread ricotta-zucchini mixture evenly over prosciutto. Smooth the top with a spatula; sprinkle pine nuts on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until center is firm and top is golden, about 35 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

The tart was delicious, but it was a bit too salty. I think I would use less salt next time.

The tart was delicious, but the crust was a bit soggy. I think I would blind-bake the crust next time.
