Ingredients

For the Marinated Tomatoes

• ½ red onion, thinly sliced
• ⅛ cup balsamic vinegar
• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2–3 garlic cloves, grated
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 large bunch fresh basil, sliced chiffonade
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste

For the Crostini

• 1 baguette, sliced
• 1–2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• Garlic powder
• Dried oregano
• Kosher salt
• Fresh cracked black pepper

For Serving

• 2 balls fresh burrata
• 8 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Fresh cracked black pepper
• Crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

Marinate the Tomatoes

Combine the cherry tomatoes, red onion, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, grated garlic, honey, basil, oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.

Mix well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Overnight is even better.

Toast the Bread

Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Toss the sliced baguette with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, kosher salt, and cracked pepper.

Arrange on a baking sheet and bake for approximately 10 minutes until lightly golden.

Don’t over-toast the bread. You’re looking for crisp edges with a slightly tender center—not homemade croutons.

Assemble the Board

Transfer the marinated tomatoes to a serving bowl.

Arrange the toasted baguette, burrata, and prosciutto around the tomatoes.

Finish the burrata with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, cracked black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.

How to Eat This Burrata Bruschetta Board

This board is meant to be assembled one bite at a time.

1. Grab a slice of toasted baguette.
2. Spoon on some marinated tomatoes and a little of the flavorful marinade.
3. Tear off a piece of creamy burrata.
4. Top it with a slice of prosciutto.
5. Enjoy every delicious bite.

The combination of creamy cheese, juicy tomatoes, salty prosciutto, fresh basil, and crunchy bread is absolutely incredible.

Storage

The marinated tomatoes will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

The crostini are best enjoyed the same day but can be stored in an airtight container for a day or two.

Assemble the board just before serving for the best texture.
