Ingredients
- 1 baguette, sliced into 12 half-inch slices
- Olive oil for brushing and drizzling
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 garlic cloves
- ½ cup pesto (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 ball burrata cheese
- 12 grape tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- For the roasted tomatoes: Place halved grape tomatoes cut side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20–30 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.
- For the crostini: Slice the baguette into 12 half-inch slices. Brush both sides with olive oil and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through. Rub warm crostini with raw garlic for flavor.
- Assemble: Spread about 1 tablespoon of burrata on each crostini, top with 1–2 teaspoons of pesto, and add 2 roasted tomato halves per piece. Garnish with salt and serve immediately.
