Instructions
Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a food processor; pulse 2 times to combine.
Combine 1/3 cup oil and 1/4 cup water in a small bowl. With processor on, slowly add oil mixture through food chute; process until dough is crumbly. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead 1 minute; add additional flour, if necessary, to prevent dough from sticking. Gently press dough into a 5-inch disk; wrap in plastic wrap, and chill at least 30 minutes.
Combine remaining 1 tablespoon oil, zucchini, squash, and garlic in a large bowl.
Combine ricotta and next 6 ingredients (through egg) in a medium bowl, stirring to combine.
Unwrap dough, and roll into a 14-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
Place dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread ricotta mixture over dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Arrange zucchini and squash slices alternately, slightly overlapping, in a circular pattern over ricotta mixture.
Sprinkle zucchini and squash with kosher salt. Fold edges of dough toward center, pressing gently to seal (dough will only partially cover squash). In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon water and egg white.
Brush dough edges with egg white mixture.
Bake at 400 for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; sprinkle with basil. Cool an additional 15 minutes.
