Ingredients
  

For the Pie Crust
  • 1 piece pie crust store-bought or homemade
For the Filling
  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon smoky flavor
  • 2 cups yellow or sweet onions caramelized
  • 4 cups firm tomatoes like Roma or heirloom
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil or dried
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish

Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out your pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. Blind-bake for 8-10 minutes until golden.
  2. Cook the thick-cut bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Crumble and reserve 1 tablespoon of drippings.
  3. Add sliced onions to the skillet with the reserved drippings and cook gently for 10-15 minutes until soft and golden.
  4. Slice firm tomatoes and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit on paper towels for 5 minutes to draw out moisture.
  5. Layer half of the crumbled bacon, half of the onions, and one layer of tomato slices in the pre-baked crust. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  6. In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, cheddar, mozzarella, fresh basil, salt, and pepper. Mix well and spread over the layered filling.
  7. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
