Summer tomatoes shine alongside melty cheese in this eye-catching tomato & brie tart recipe. Slice it up into small pieces for the perfect summer appetizer, or into large ones and serve as an entrée with a pepper arugula salad. Got leftovers? Top them with a fried egg for a filling breakfast.
Don’t skip the balsamic glaze, as it brings the whole dish together with the right amount of sweet, savory, and tang. Since brie is a soft cheese that gets melty at room temperature, make sure the cheese is cold before using to achieve thin and clean slices.
If you want a greener option, rather than using paper towels to blot the tomatoes, use clean dishtowels instead.
For more baked tomato recipes that feature peak-summer tomatoes and the flakiest pastry, try a tomato galette or Southern tomato pie.

- Preheat the oven to 400º. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry to a 14″-by-10″ rectangle about 1/8″ thick. Slide pastry onto a baking sheet. Using a knife, score a 1/2″ border around the edges. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sprinkle tomatoes all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt and arrange in a single layer on paper towel-lined plates. Let sit 10 minutes, changing paper towels when they’re wet. Blot top of tomatoes with more paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible.
- Arrange brie evenly across puff pastry, leaving a 1/2″ border. Top brie with tomatoes, slightly overlapping if necessary.
- Bake until pastry is puffed and golden and cheese is melted, 22 to 26 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- Sprinkle tart with chives; season with pepper. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and top with basil.
