Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Roasted Tomato and Garlic Mixture:

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 4 garlic cloves (peeled)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

For the Bruschetta Bites:

  • 1 French baguette (sliced into 1/2-inch rounds)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil (for brushing)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roast the tomatoes and garlic: Spread the halved cherry tomatoes and garlic cloves on the sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized and the garlic is golden. Let cool slightly, then chop the roasted garlic and mix it with the tomatoes in a bowl.
  3. Prepare the tomato mixture: Add balsamic vinegar, chopped basil, and oregano to the roasted tomato and garlic mixture, and stir to combine.
  4. Toast the baguette slices: Brush the baguette slices with melted butter or olive oil and toast in the oven for 8–10 minutes or until golden and crisp.
  5. Assemble the bruschetta bites: Top each toasted baguette slice with a spoonful of the roasted tomato and garlic mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan if desired and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, rub each toasted baguette slice with a cut garlic clove before topping.
  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat, or drizzle with extra balsamic glaze before serving.
