1
Prepare the Bread
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette or Italian bread into ½ inch thick slices. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet.
2
Toast the Bread
Brush the bread slices with olive oil on both sides. Toast in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

3
Mix the Topping
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped basil, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir gently until well combined.

4
Assemble the Bruschetta
Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice of toasted bread.
5
Finish with Balsamic Reduction
Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the topped bruschetta for added flavor.
