Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 8 ounces Fresh mozzarella
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch-thick slices, yielding approximately 12-14 pieces. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
Brush each slice with olive oil on one side.
Bake the baguette slices for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
While the bread toasts, mince the garlic and dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss well and set aside.
Thinly slice the fresh mozzarella into small rounds, roughly the same size as the baguette slices.
Once the bread is toasted, let it cool slightly before assembling the bruschettas.
Place one or two mozzarella slices on each baguette slice.
Top the mozzarella with a spoonful of the tomato mixture.
Tear the basil leaves and place a small piece on top of each bruschetta.
Drizzle balsamic glaze over all the bruschettas for a finishing touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mozzarella Bruschettas!
