Easy Tomato Pie Recipe

If you have fresh tomatoes, you have to try this classic southern tomato pie recipe! Melted cheese, tons of flavor and a warm buttery topping make this a summer staple!

Years ago, after I’d lived in North Carolina, I was introduced to Tomato Pie. Even though I grew up in Florida, it was more tourist trap than “the south” so I am constantly discovering new to me dishes.

An y’all, I am telling you it is SO good and super easy to make! If you’re looking for a delicious way to enjoy tomatoes from your garden, the farmer’s market or the grocery store, this tomato pie is so satisfying!

Tomato Pie Ingredients

You can make your own pie crust if you want, but I’ve found that deep dish frozen pie crusts work just fine. 

You will also need your fresh tomatoes (local is best), mayo, green onions, salt and pepper, basil and a nice melty cheese. I’ve used mozzarella, provolone, and gruyere! 

This last time, I forgot to buy mozzarella so I chopped up some provolone slices and it worked like a charm.

My point is, it’s ok to improvise. If you are out of fresh basil, use dried leaves or even a spice blend. 

Once your filling is all diced up, simply mix it together. 

Aside from the tomatoes, my favorite part of this pie is the buttery cracker topping. Yum!

Classic Tomato Pie

Pre-bake your crust according to the package instructions minus a few minutes. Then pat your tomato slices dry before stacking them up. 

Add salt and pepper as you layer your slices. 

Top the tomatoes with your filling and add the crumbled crackers and bake until done. 

If you happen to have any leftovers, they make a delicious breakfast too but I wouldn’t count on having much leftover.
