Ingredients
1store-bought pie dough
2tablespoonsbutter
2earscorncut off the cob
1/4onionfinely chopped
1/2cupricotta cheese
1/4cupBoursin cheese (NOTE 1)
1/2cupMozzarella cheesefinely chopped or shredded
thyme
salt & pepper
1egg
olive oil
Instructions
Heat butter in a skillet, add finely chopped onion and corn. Cook and stir until the onion is translucent. Cool down.
Slice the summer squash thinly (by hand or use a mandolin). Place the slices on a paper towel and sprinkle with salt. Let this sit for about 10 minutes and cover with another sheet of paper towel and dab the moisture off the summer squash.
Transfer ricotta, Boursin and finely chopped or shredded Mozzarella into a bowl and mix. Add the cooled corn-onion mixture and thyme mix again. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Roll pie dough onto parchment paper and place parchment paper on a baking sheet. Spread cheese-corn mixture onto the dough, but leave about a 1.5-2-inch perimeter.
Place the slices of summer squash on top of the cheese mixture circling from the outside in and each slice overlapping the previous one.
Fold the dough around the filling and press down on the corners, just a little bit.
Brush the dough with egg or egg wash.
Brush a little olive oil over the summer squash slices, so they don’t dry out during baking.
Slide the baking sheet in an oven of 400 degrees F. and bake for 30-35 minutes.
When the dough is nicely brown and you see the filling bubbling, the pie is ready.
Notes
Instead of ricotta and Boursin cheese, you can use only ricotta. Just add a minced clove of garlic to the mix.
