Ingredients

Tomato Jam—

  • 1 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp hot honey
  • 1/4 c. Granulated sugar

Tart—

  • 1 pie dough uncooked
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 4 oz goat cheese garlic and herb flavor if available
  • 1 c. Heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan over low-medium heat, add the cherry tomatoes, honey, and sugar. Stir and then cover and simmer for 5-6 minutes.
  • Uncover and start carefully mashing tomatoes. Continue simmering, stirring frequently. Continue to simmer until thickened and reduced. (About 15-20 minutes). Set aside to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 425F and line a tart pan with the pie dough. Crimp the edges however you’d like. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer, beat together eggs, salt and pepper. Then add the goat cheese and beat again until combined. Slowly add in heavy cream while continuing to beat until combined and starting to get bubbly/frothy. Pour into the tart pan and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and reduce heat to 325F. Top the tart with the tomato jam (spreading as evenly as you can) and then return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes (or until crust is lightly browned).

Notes

Add fresh or dried herbs to the mix if you can't find a Garlic and herb flavored cheese.
