Preparation

Step 1

1.Preheat oven to 400˚F.

2. For dough: Place flour, salt, baking powder, butter, and cream cheese in a food processor and pulse until a fine meal forms. While pulsing, add water and vinegar and continue to pulse until dough forms. Dump dough onto a clean surface and form into a disc. Tightly cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

3. Lightly flour a clean surface and roll dough out into a 13” circle, about 1/8-1/4 inch thick.

4. Transfer dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

5. Spread the goat cheese evenly over the crust, leaving a 1 inch boarder.

6. Sprinkle panko over the goat cheese and top with the tomato slices, each slice slightly overlapping one another.

7. Fold the edge of the crust into the center and gently press down to seal. Sprinkle the crust with the grated parmesan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

8. Remove from oven and allow galette to cool, 10-15 minutes. Top with ricotta salata and fresh basil leaves, if using. Cut into wedges and serve.
