While the bread is toasting, dice the fresh tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Finely chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the tomatoes.

Prepare the Topping

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the tomato and basil mixture. Drizzle in the balsamic vinegar and remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.

Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Top each slice with the tomato mixture just before serving.
