Roasted Tomato Bruschetta
This Roasted Tomato Bruschetta is a little slice of heaven! Crusty bread is topped with creamy ricotta, then piled high with delicious, super sweet roasted tomatoes and finished off with fresh basil and a generous drizzle of balsamic glaze. It's literally the perfect bite!!
Ingredients
- 1 recipe Roasted Tomatoes recipe here (See Note 1)
- 10 slices good quality, bakery style bread, cut into 1/2"-3/4" slices See Note 2
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup whipped cream cheese See Note 3
- 1/3 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
- balsamic glaze, for drizzling can be found near the vinegar at your grocery store
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together whipped cream cheese and ricotta until well combined; set aside.
- Pre-heat oven to 425°F. Place bread slices on a rimmed baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Then, toast bread in the oven for 3-5 min until golden brown. You can also toast the bread in a grill pan as well!
- Top each slice of toasted bread with about a tablespoon of the cream cheese/ricotta mixture.
- Then, add your cherry tomatoes (I usually use 3 or 4 tomatoes per piece).
- Finish by sprinking with fresh basil and drizzling on the balsamic glaze!
Notes
Note 1: You can make my easy roasted cherry tomatoes quickly in the air fryer with this recipe OR if you don't have an air fryer, follow instructions in the recipe, then bake cherry tomatoes in the oven at 250°F for about 2-3 hours.
Note 2: I like using french bread or sourdough bread that I buy in the bakery section of my local grocery store.
Note 3: I recommend buying already-whipped cream cheese such as this one.
