Servings: persons

5 11/16 ounces all-purpose flour about 1 1/4 cups
3 tablespoons unsalted butter chilled, diced
2 ounces 1/3-less-fat cream cheese cut into small pieces
1/4 cup plain whole milk yogurt
12 ounces zucchini very thinly sliced
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt divided
1 1/4 cups 2% reduced fat milk
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper freshly
3 large eggs lightly beaten
2 ounces lower sodium ham diced
2 ounces goat cheese plain firm, crumbled
2 thyme sprigs cut into 1/4-inch pieces

1
Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Place flour, butter, and cream cheese in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add yogurt; pulse just until mixture comes together. Wrap dough in plastic wrap, and shape into a 1-inch-thick disk. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
2
Preheat oven to 400u00b0.
3
Roll dough to a 12.5-inch circle on a lightly floured work surface. Fit dough into a 10-inch removable-bottom tart pan, pressing dough against bottom and up sides of pan. Pierce bottom of dough liberally with a fork. Line bottom of dough with parchment paper; arrange pie weights or dried beans on parchment paper. Bake at 400u00b0 for 15 minutes. Remove pie weights and parchment paper; bake at 400u00b0 for 5 minutes or until crust is lightly browned. Cool slightly.
4
Place zucchini in a large bowl; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let stand 15 minutes or until liquid is released. Drain in a colander, squeezing a handful at a time to remove liquid, and pat dry. Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, milk, thyme, pepper, and eggs in a bowl, stirring with a whisk. Sprinkle ham and goat cheese evenly over bottom of prepared crust; arrange zucchini over cheese. Carefully pour egg mixture over zucchini; top with thyme sprigs. Bake at 400u00b0 for 35 minutes or until egg is set. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut into wedges.
