Ingredients

Scale

    • Extra virgin olive oil for brushing
    • 1 garlic clove, halved but unpeeled
  • Tomato and Basil Topping:

    • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    • 1/4 teaspoon kosher or cooking salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • Toast the bread in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  • Rub each slice of toasted bread with the cut side of the garlic clove.
  • Dice the tomatoes and mix them with the chopped basil, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Spoon the tomato mixture onto the toasted bread slices.
