Ingredients

  • 1 loaf baguette
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • 4 oz prosciutto
  • 4 oz fresh mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Slice the baguette diagonally into 12 slices about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Brush both sides of each bread slice with 2 tbsp of the olive oil and arrange on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven until golden and crisp, about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway.

  3. 3

    While the bread toasts, dice the 2 tomatoes and tear the 4 oz prosciutto into bite-size pieces. Tear the 4 oz mozzarella into small chunks.

  4. 4

    Remove the toasted bread from the oven. Top each slice with tomato, prosciutto, and mozzarella.

  5. 5

    Drizzle the bruschetta with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and the 2 tbsp balsamic glaze. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary leaves from the 1 sprig. Serve immediately.

  6. 6

    Optional: add a pinch of salt and black pepper to the tomatoes before topping, or a few red pepper flakes for heat.
