Description

This Burrata Bruschetta is a delicious and elegant twist on the classic Italian appetizer, featuring creamy burrata cheese, juicy tomatoes, fresh basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1-inch rounds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (for brushing)
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, torn
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • 10 ounces burrata cheese
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil.
  • Toast the baguette slices in the oven for 8–10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  • While the bread is toasting, prepare the topping by combining halved cherry tomatoes, torn basil leaves, salt, pepper, and balsamic glaze in a bowl.
  • Once the bread is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
  • Rub each toasted baguette slice with the peeled garlic clove for extra flavor.
  • Add a generous portion of burrata cheese on top of each baguette slice, and spoon the tomato mixture over it.
  • Drizzle with balsamic glaze (optional) and serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can add a little olive oil and lemon juice to the tomato mixture for extra flavor.
  • The bruschetta is best served immediately while the bread is still crispy.
