Step 1
Heat oven to 400°F. Fit the pie dough into a 9-inch pie dish, letting it hang 1/2 inch over the edge, then prick the bottom with a fork.
Step 2
Pat tomato slices dry with paper towels. Arrange them in a single layer on the crust, sprinkling lightly with salt and pepper between layers.
Step 3
Mix cheddar, mayonnaise, basil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a bowl until combined.
Step 4
Spread the cheese-mayo mixture evenly over the tomatoes, reaching the edges of the crust.
Step 5
Fold the overhang of crust back over the filling, pleating loosely. Bake for 25 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles at the edges.
Step 6
Cool for 5 minutes. Slice into 6 wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
