With toasted baguette slices topped with juicy tomatoes, fresh basil, and luscious burrata cheese, this dish is an easy yet elegant crowd-pleaser. Perfect for summer parties, date nights, or a light lunch, every bite is a blend of crunchy, creamy, and tangy bliss.

Ingredients

• 1 French baguette, sliced into ½-inch rounds

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and halved

• 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

• 8 ounces burrata cheese

• Fresh basil leaves, torn or whole, for garnish

• Optional: flaky sea salt and crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil.

2. Toast in the oven for 7–8 minutes or until golden and crisp.

3. While still warm, rub each toast with the cut side of a garlic clove.

4. In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well.

5. Place a generous spoonful of the tomato mixture on each toast.

6. Tear burrata and place chunks on top of each bruschetta.

7. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and optional toppings like flaky salt or red pepper flakes.

8. Serve immediately while toasts are still crisp!

Notes

• Burrata is best served at room temperature—take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before using.

• Use heirloom cherry tomatoes for extra color and sweetness.

• For a balsamic glaze finish, drizzle a little over the top before serving.

• Can be made gluten-free by using GF baguette or crackers.

• Make the tomato topping ahead and store chilled—assemble when ready to serve.
