Ingredients
Scale
1 French baguette (or Italian bread)
4 ripe tomatoes, diced
1 cup fresh mozzarella, diced
½ cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: Red pepper flakes for a spicy kick
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Bread: Slice the baguette into ½-inch thick slices. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
Brush each slice lightly with olive oil. Toast in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, mozzarella, fresh basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, and remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven. Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice of bread.
If desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the top for added flavor.
Enjoy while the bruschetta is warm, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
