A simple and flavorful bruschetta featuring roasted cherry tomatoes, garlic, and fresh basil, perfect as a light starter.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano (if using), salt, and pepper.
Spread the tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized.
While the tomatoes are roasting, brush the baguette slices with a little olive oil.
Toast the baguette slices in the oven during the last 5-7 minutes of tomato roasting or until lightly golden brown.
Once the tomatoes are roasted and the bread is toasted, spoon the roasted tomatoes onto the toasted baguette slices.
Top with fresh basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze (if using).
Serve immediately.
