Preheat your oven's broiler setting or prepare a toaster oven.
Thinly slice the tomatoes into rounds, about 1/4 inch thick, and set aside.
Finely chop the fresh basil leaves for garnish.
Peel the garlic clove and cut it in half.
Lightly toast the almond flour bread slices until golden brown either under the broiler or in a toaster oven, about 3-4 minutes.
While the toast is still hot, gently rub the cut side of the garlic clove on one side of each slice to impart flavor.
Brush 1/2 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil evenly over each slice of toast.
Arrange the tomato slices over the olive oil-brushed side of the toast, slightly overlapping them.
Sprinkle the tomato-topped toasts with sea salt and black pepper according to your taste.
Finish by garnishing with the chopped fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
