Ingredients  

  • 1 recipe Gluten Free Flaky Pie Crust - or store bought double pie crust
  • ½ cup prepared basil pesto
  • 1 medium zucchini - sliced very thin
  • 1 medium yellow squash - sliced very thin
  • 1 very small red onion - sliced very thin
  • 1 ounces parmesan cheese - grated on small holes
  • 8 ounces whole milk mozzarella cheese - grated on large holes
  • 1 large egg - beaten
  • 2 tbsps fresh basil or parsley - finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper - to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Dust a clean rolling surface with gluten free flour. Split the recipe for the Gluten Free Flaky Pie Crust in half. 
  • Roll and shape each piece of dough into a rough circle about ⅛ inch thick and about 16 inches in diameter.  Transfer the crusts to parchment lined sheet pans. 
  • Spread half of the pesto onto each crust, leaving about an inch and a half border around the edges. 
  • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the pesto on each crust.
  • Spread an even layer of sliced zucchini, yellow squash and purple onion on top of the mozzarella.
  • Lightly drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
  • Fold the edges of the crust gently over so that they cover the edge of the fillings, preventing them from spilling out.
  • Brush the exposed edge of the crust with beaten egg wash and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-24 minutes or until the crust is browned nicely.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped herbs when ready to serve.
