Time 1h40m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large onions, sliced thin (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (12 inch) pastry dough, for a single-crust tart
1/2 lb monterey jack cheese (about 2 cups) or 1/2 lb gruyere cheese, shredded (about 2 cups)
1/2 lb plum tomato, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1/2 lb medium yellow tomatoes (about 2) or 1/2 lb plum tomato, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1/4 cup nicoise olive, pitted (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large heavy skillet cook onions with salt to taste in oil, covered, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 20 minutes. Remove lid and cook onions, stirring occasionally, until golden and any liquid evaporates. Remove skillet from heat to cool onions slightly. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • On a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin roll dough into a 14-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick). Fold round in half and transfer to a 12-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim or a 12-inch quiche dish. Unfold dough, easing to fit, and trim overhang to 3/4 inch. Fold overhang toward center and press against side of pan or dish. Spread onion mixture over dough and top with cheese. Arrange tomato wedges and olives in concentric circles over cheese and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake tart in middle of oven 1 hour, or until pastry is golden, and cool on a rack. Remove rim of pan if necessary. Serve tart warm or at room temperature.

I'm not a fan of tomatoes, but I actually really enjoyed this tart. The onions and balsamic glaze balance out the sweetness of the tomatoes perfectly.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of balsamic glaze.

I was a bit hesitant to try this tart because I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes. But I'm so glad I did! The tomatoes are roasted until they're caramelized and sweet, and the onions are perfectly caramelized as well. The combination is amazing.

This tart was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of sweet tomatoes and caramelized onions is divine. I used a pre-made puff pastry crust to save time, and it turned out perfectly flaky and golden brown.
