½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt
¼ cup (60 ml) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 tablespoons (45 ml) vegetable shortening
3 tablespoons (45 ml) ice water
ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES
1 pint cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil

CARAMELIZED ONIONS
1 large sweet onion
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
1 tablespoon (15 ml) unsalted butter
¼ cup (60 ml) water
½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt
1 teaspoon (5 ml) granulated sugar
2.5 oz (7 g) goat cheese
PREPARE THE PASTRY CRUST
1. In a food processor, pulse together the
whole wheat flour, all purpose flour and
salt. Add butter and shortening and
pulse the mixture until it resembles small
crumbs. This process can also be done
with two knives or with a pastry cutter.
2. Add ice water to bring the crumbs
together and form a ball. Use more water
if necessary.
3. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap
and chill for at least one hour.
ROASTING THE CHERRY TOMATOES
1. Cut cherry tomatoes in half and scoop
out seeds and water.
2. Toss in a bowl with olive oil, salt
and pepper.
3. Line an 11-inch (28 cm) round baking
sheet with parchment paper and arrange
the cherry tomatoes in a single layer.
4. Set the rack at the bottom rack height
position. Turn the FUNCTION dial to
ROAST. Set the TEMPERATURE to 350˚F
(175˚C) and the TIME to 20 minutes.
Press START/CANCEL button to activate.
5. Set the roasted cherry tomatoes aside
to cool.
CARAMELIZING THE ONIONS
1. In a small sauce pan on medium heat,
heat the olive oil and butter. Sauté the
onions for one minute.
2. Add water, salt and sugar. Cover and
bring to a boil. Turn heat down to low.
3. Continue to cook on low heat for about
15 to 20 minutes or until the onions
have softened and have taken on a
golden color. Stir often.
4. Set the caramelized onions aside to cool.
ASSEMBLING THE TART
1. On a well-floured surface, roll out the
pastry to a ¼ inch thickness. Transfer
the rolled pastry to a 9-inch square tart
pan. Press the dough onto the sides
and cut off the excess. For best results
refrigerate for half an hour.
2. Remove the tart pan from the
refrigerator, and spread an even layer of
the caramelized onions.
3. Arrange the roasted cherry tomato
halves over the onions.
4. Dot with crumbled goat cheese.
5. Set the wire rack at the bottom rack
height position. Turn the FUNCTION
dial to BAKE. Set the TEMPERATURE
to 375˚F (192˚C) and the TIME to 35
minutes. Press START/CANCEL button
to activate.
6. Bake the tart until the crust becomes
golden and cooked through.
