Rustic Sunbeam Pie, a misleading but indicative title. I usually never buy ready-made bread dough, it’s so easy and quick to prepare that I don’t think twice about making it myself… but there are exceptions, this is one of them. There are so many available on the market from various producers and all very good, when we are short on time, the ready-made one is just fine. Rustic Sunbeam Pie is born from the need to prepare and describe a different and appetizing appetizer. Prepare this rustic tart that I call the sunbeam, place it in the center of the table, without cutting it, whole and so appetizing, good, and crunchy! Ready in a few minutes. Perfect for a last-minute appetizer. Visit my blog.giallozafferano.itvaipinacucina and discover many other recipes.

Ingredients
- 17.64 oz bread dough
- 14.11 oz chicory
- 14.11 oz sheep's ricotta
- 1 egg
Tools
- Baking pan
- Parchment paper
- Food marker
Preparation
Divide the bread dough into two equal parts and roll it out on parchment paper already in a 12-inch baking pan. Mix the chicory with the ricotta, adjust with salt and oil, place the filling on the dough and arrange in a radial pattern, a couple of tablespoons in the center as shown in the photo.
Cover with the other sheet of dough previously rolled out and cut without detaching the rays, from the center to the edge of the dough, turn the sun rays all in one direction to create the pinwheel effect.
Beat an egg and brush the sunbeam.
Put in a preheated oven at 356°F and bake for 30 minutes.
Ready!
Here is the rustic sunbeam pie ready.
