Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds, yielding about 16-20 slices.
Brush each baguette slice lightly with olive oil on both sides and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Toast the baguette slices in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
While the bread toasts, prepare the bruschetta topping. Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the basil leaves and garlic cloves, then add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Season the tomato mixture with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Stir to combine.
Spread a generous layer of Boursin cheese onto each toasted baguette slice.
Top the cheese with a spoonful of the tomato-basil mixture.
Drizzle each canap with a small swirl of balsamic glaze for added flavor.
Arrange the canaps on a serving platter and garnish with extra basil leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy these delicious bites!
