Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Tomatoes
- 0.5 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with olive oil.
Wash the tomatoes and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the tomato slices with olive oil to lightly coat them. This helps the topping stick and adds flavor.
Sprinkle the Parmesan mixture evenly over the tomato slices, ensuring each slice gets a generous coating.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the slices cool for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle the baked tomato slices with chopped fresh basil before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or on toasted bread for a simple bruschetta.
