Bruschetta Ingredients

Method

Bruschetta Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the baguette into ½ inch thick slices at a diagonal angle.

  2. 2

    Toast the Bread

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil and place them on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crisp.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tomato Topping

    While the bread is grilling, dice the fresh tomatoes and place them in a medium bowl. Add minced garlic (finely chop the garlic cloves), chopped basil leaves, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix well to combine.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the grill and let it cool slightly. Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice of grilled bread.

  5. 5

    Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze

    Finish by drizzling the balsamic glaze over the top of each bruschetta.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Arrange the bruschetta on a serving platter and enjoy immediately.
