Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade if preferred)

2 cups fresh corn kernels (or frozen, thawed)

3 medium ripe tomatoes, sliced

1 cup grated mozzarella cheese

½ cup crumbled feta cheese

¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 egg (for egg wash)

1 tablespoon milk (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the fresh corn kernels, sliced tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and feta. Add the torn basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything gently to ensure an even coating.

      Roll Out the Crust: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crust into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer this to the prepared baking sheet.

        Assemble the Galette: Arrange the tomato and corn mixture in the center of the dough, leaving about a 2-inch border. Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as you go to form a rustic border.

          Brush the Crust: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash. Brush this mixture over the exposed crust for a nice golden color when baked.

            Bake the Galette: Place the galette in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Garnish with extra fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve warm or at room temperature.
