Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 9 inch refrigerated pie crust (such as Pillsbury®
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 5 Roma tomatoes, or more to taste, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup loosely packed basil leaves, coarsely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 0.5 cup fat-free mayonnaise
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground white pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. Press pie crust into a 9-inch round pan or glass pie plate; fold excess dough under and press to form a thick edge. Cover edges with aluminum foil.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle ½ cup mozzarella cheese over bottom. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  4. Drain tomato wedges in a colander or on paper towels; arrange over mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with chopped basil and garlic.
  5. Combine remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, and white pepper in a bowl; spread over tomatoes but do not spread onto crust.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, 35 to 40 minutes. Garnish with whole basil leaves and serve warm.
