Ingredients

PASTRY:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 stick (8 Tbsp.) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into 1" pieces
1 Tbsp. olive oil
½ tsp. salt
Pinch of ground black pepper
¼ cup ice water
FILLING:
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 shallot, peeled and diced
2 packages (approximately 10 oz. each) frozen spinach, defrosted and wrung dry
5 eggs
1 cup whole milk
¾ cup heavy cream
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
4 oz. goat cheese
½ cup sun dried tomatoes, diced

Directions

1
Make the pastry by adding the flour, butter, olive oil and salt to a food processor. Pulse a few times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With the machine running, slowly add the ice water through the feed tube until a dough ball forms. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
2
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out the pastry to a circle large enough to fit in a deep-dish tart pan with a removable bottom. Place the pastry in the pan, poke several holes in the bottom with the tines of a fork and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool while making the filling.
3
To make the filling, add the olive oil and diced shallot to a large skillet. Cook on medium heat, stirring often, until the shallots become translucent. Stir in the spinach and remove from the heat to cool.
4
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, salt, ground black pepper, goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir in the spinach and shallot mixture and pour into the par-baked tart shell.
5
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the dough is lightly golden brown and the center is set. Allow to cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan.
