For the Bruschetta

  • to taste extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • to taste balsamic glaze optional but highly recommended
  • to taste salt and pepper

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Slice the baguette into about 1-inch thick pieces and arrange them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Toast the bread in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  4. In a bowl, mix the tomatoes with minced garlic, salt, pepper, and torn basil leaves. Toss gently.
Assembly

Notes

For best results, assemble just before serving to keep the bread crunchy. You can add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
