Directions

Step 1
Core and dice tomatoes. Drain any excess juice and transfer tomatoes to a medium bowl.
Step 2
Chop Basil – Stack basil leaves and roll them into a tube. Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the basil into ribbons and transfer to the bowl with tomatoes.
Step 3
Finely mince 5 garlic cloves. Mix 1 tsp of minced garlic into 3 Tbsp olive oil and set aside. Add remaining minced garlic to the mixing bowl with tomatoes.
Step 4
Season tomatoes with 2 Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp balsamic, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir gently to combine and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 400˚F with a rack in the center of the oven. Place toasts on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cut toasts into 1/2” thick slices, slicing diagonally.
Step 6
Arrange toasts on the prepared baking sheet and brush the garlic infused olive oil on both sides of toasts. Sprinkle tops with parmesan cheese and bake at 400˚F for 5 minutes then broil on high heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Step 7
Arrange the toasts on a platter and the tomato topping in a separate bowl. Spoon the tomato mixture over the toasts and serve with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze.
