Directions
- Toss the diced tomatoes with the basil, minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes so the flavours can mingle.
- Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush the tops with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Bake for 6–8 minutes, until the edges are golden and the bread is crisp.
- Rub the warm toasted tops with the cut sides of the remaining garlic clove.
- Use a slotted spoon to pile the tomato mixture onto the toast just before serving. Finish with a light drizzle of balsamic glaze, if desired.
