Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices, about 12-16 pieces. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush both sides with olive oil.
Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
While the bread is toasting, hull and dice the strawberries into small pieces. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Chop the basil leaves finely and add them to the bowl with the strawberries.
Drizzle the diced strawberries with honey, and season with salt and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Spread a thin layer of goat cheese on each toasted baguette slice.
Top each slice with a spoonful of the strawberry mixture, ensuring an even distribution.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the assembled bruschetta for added sweetness and tang.
Garnish each slice with a small basil leaf, if desired, for a touch of elegance. Serve immediately and enjoy!
