Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams cherry tomatoes
- 60 grams panko breadcrumbs
- 30 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 10 grams fresh basil leaves
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel. Place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder to the tomatoes. Toss until the tomatoes are evenly coated.
In a separate small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix thoroughly to create a crumbly topping.
Arrange the seasoned cherry tomatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of honey to enhance their natural sweetness.
Sprinkle the panko mixture generously over the tomatoes, ensuring each tomato gets some of the crunchy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tomatoes soften and burst slightly while the topping turns golden brown.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the tomatoes cool for 3-5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves and drizzle with balsamic glaze for a tangy finish.
Serve warm as an appetizer, side dish, or enjoy on toasted bread as part of a bruschetta.
