TOTAL TIME: 15 mins
Ingredients (4 servings) :
- 1 demi baguette,* sliced
- 12 ounces cherry tomatoes
- 5 large basil leaves, chopped
- ½ cup garlic infused olive oil
These bruschetta are brushed with garlic-infused olive oil on both sides before being topped with fresh cherry tomatoes and baked in the oven. The oil not only adds additional garlic flavor but also helps the baguette bake up really crispy.
Instructions:
- Heat the oven to 400 ºF
- Slice tomatoes in half, scrape out the seeds and discard, then roughly chop the tomatoes
- Brush each baguette slice generously with the garlic flavored olive oil on both sides, then set on a baking sheet
- Top each slice with the tomatoes
- Drizzle a bit of garlic infused olive oil over the tomatoes, then sprinkle with salt and bake until the bread turns golden brown (about 8 minutes).
- Chop and add basil for a fresh final touch
