# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
2 garlic cloves, split in half
02 -
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
03 -
1 baguette, cut into thick slices about 1.25 cm each
→ Topping
04 -
Freshly ground black pepper, as much as you like
05 -
Salt, just a sprinkle or two
06 -
3 tablespoons thick balsamic glaze
07 -
15 basil leaves, chopped up
08 -
250 g cherry tomatoes, cut in half
09 -
200 g burrata cheese, torn into chunks
# Steps:
01 -
After you add all your toppings, drizzle balsamic glaze all over the toasts, sprinkle with salt and a bit of pepper, and dig right in while it's fresh.
02 -
Throw those basil bits over everything for a burst of flavor and color.
03 -
Plop a few halved tomatoes right on top of the cheesy toasts.
04 -
Take the warm toasts, add lots of burrata pieces to each one.
05 -
While your bread's heating up, gently break the burrata into smaller portions without losing too much of the creamy center.
06 -
Pop those slices in the oven until they're nice and crispy, should take about 8–10 minutes.
07 -
Coat each side of the sliced bread with some olive oil, then rub with the cut side of your garlic for a flavor boost.
08 -
Cut your baguette into rounds about a finger wide, then spread them out on a tray so none overlap.
09 -
Crank your oven up to 190°C and give it time to warm up all the way.
# Notes:
01 -
Grab the freshest baguette you can—it truly makes every bite better.
02 -
Love garlic or prefer it mellow? Just rub more or less on the bread based on what you like.
03 -
Wanna mix it up? Extra toppings like sun-dried tomatoes, arugula, or prosciutto give awesome flavor.
04 -
No balsamic glaze on hand? Regular balsamic vinegar or reduction works just fine.
05 -
Oregano or thyme can totally change the vibes—try swapping in different herbs.
