How to Make Broccoli And Cream Cheese Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roll out one 14 inch pie crust and place it in a 9 inch pie plate. Crimp the edges.
  3. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and pre-bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven.
  4. Steam 1 large head of broccoli florets for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately plunge into ice water to stop cooking and then pat completely dry.
  5. Evenly scatter the broccoli over the pre-baked pie crust.
  6. In a medium bowl, beat 8 ounces of cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  7. Beat in 1/2 cup of half & half, 2 large eggs, and 1 large egg yolk.
  8. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper (about 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper).
  9. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions.
  10. Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the broccoli.
  11. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly browned. For mini tarts, bake for 20 minutes, or until filling is set and browned.
  13. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
