These are some of the last crop of dwarf tomatoes, "heirloom type" although not all are actually heirloom.
I also still have a lot of the Gravenstein apples, although they go bad rather quickly.
So I made pies with both.
I substituted cake flour for about 1/3 of the all purpose flour in the crusts. It did make them more flaky (mission accomplished!) and they tasted so good! But for the blind baked cruse (tomato pie), the bottom cracked and the sides flopped in a bit. The flavor was still wonderful.
This time, I used a Mexican style shredded cheese mis for the tomato pie. That was excellent. I also used home made mayonnaise in the cheese mixture. The topping includes some chopped Jalapeños.
