The Best Tomato Pie Recipe

Tomato pie is a summer staple and one we enjoy all the time. The basic ingredients in this simple and delicious recipe are mainly the same for all, but there are several different ways to prepare it. One this is for certain though, every end of summer should include this delicious recipe. Tomato pie is fresh and delicious and goes with just about anything. It’s a great way to use up all of those tomatoes that are exploding in the garden (anyone else trying to find all of the tomato recipes to use those up?!). Plus, it’s a fun twist on a pie. I love that it’s savory and used as the main dish for dinner. Trust me. You don’t want to miss this!

Ingredients in Tomato Pie

This savory pie is made of just a few basic ingredients, most of which you probably have on hand. The key is choosing super firm tomatoes! Use your fingertips to gently squeeze the tomatoes to test their firmness. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact ingredient measurements.

9-inch Pie Shell: You can use a store-bought pie shell if you’re looking to make this recipe quickly, or you can make a delicious one of your own like this pie crust.Fresh Tomatoes: The firmer the tomatoes, the better. If the tomatoes are too soft, they’ll have way too much moisture, which will make your pie soggy.Kosher Salt: This helps to drain any additional water.Fresh Basil: Basil and tomato are a match made in heaven! I highly recommend using fresh basil leaves if you can.Mozzarella Cheese: You can use pre-shredded mozzarella cheese for this recipe, but shredding it from a block makes it slightly softer, and it melts perfectly into the pie.Mayonnaise: The mayo slightly holds this pie together and adds some delicious flavor. Try making your own with this recipe! Seasonings: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder and the main spices for this recipe. However, you can easily add in some more such as paprika and chili powder if you like a spicier version.

How to Make Tomato Pie

This pie comes together easily, and it is a great lunch or dinner menu option. It’s fresh and has the classic flavors of basil and tomato, which no one will be able to resist!

In the Refrigerator: Once your pie has cooled, then you can wrap it in plastic wrap and store it in your fridge. It will last about 4-5 days. To Reheat: You can reheat your tomato pie in the microwave or even in the oven at 325 degrees for 5-10 minutes. We also don’t even mind eating a slice of it cold!
