- The important thing to remember during assembly is that you dont have to use all of each ingredient, but add enough so that you have a good balance.
- You might have some left over.
- View the photos in the related link to have a good idea of proportion.
- 1.
- Thaw the pastry round at room temperature for about 20 minutes or until its easy to mold into your 9 inch round glass pie dish.
- This can be thawing while youre grating your cheese and slicing your veggies.
- 2.
- Slice the zucchini (dont peel!)
- into thin, round slices.
- You should have about 2 cups when youre done slicing.
- 3.
- Slice your tomatoes into thin slices, and cut out the middle seedy part if its too juicy.
- Drain if necessary.
- 4.
- Mold your thawed pastry sheet into the dish, leaving the excess hanging over the edge of the dish.
- Dont trim it!
- 5.
- Put on your first layer of mozzarella cheese.
- (See pictures).
- 6.
- Crumble up the goat cheese and sprinkle it on, along with the fresh thyme.
- 7.
- Arrange half of the sliced zucchini in concentric circles on top.
- 8.
- Add one half of the mozzarella you have left, and a little more than half of your Parmesan.
- 9.
- Add the sliced tomatoes, and the rest of your zucchini.
- 10.
- Sprinkle the rest of all your cheeses on top.
- 11.
- Whisk your two eggs in a bowl with some of the heavy cream.
- Start with 1/4 cup and add more if you need to.
- I ended up adding another egg, so keep an extra one handy.
- Stir in some salt and pepper while youre whisking.
- 12.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and let it sink in.
- Sprinkle a little more cheese on top if you have it.
- I added some yellow baby tomatoes on top here too.
- 13.
- Carefully fold over the edges of your pastry on top of the filling.
- The majority of the top should still be open, but should have about a two inch folded over crust.
- Your filling should come nearly to the top.
- 14.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until the top is a golden brown and the custard is set.
- Enjoy!
