Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices; you should get about 12 slices.
Place the slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil, approximately 2 tablespoons in total.
Peel and halve the garlic cloves. Rub the cut sides of the garlic on the top side of each baguette slice.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and toast the baguette slices for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Dice the tomatoes into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a medium-sized bowl.
Slice or shred the vegan mozzarella and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Chop or tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces and add them to the tomato mixture.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the bowl and gently toss to combine.
Spoon a generous amount of the tomato mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.
Drizzle each bruschetta with a little balsamic glaze for a hint of sweetness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vegan bruschetta with tomato and mozzarella!
