Author: The Chef
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Cake
Ingredients
- 1 loaf ciabatta bread, sliced in half
- ½ c. unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- kosher salt
- 1½ c. shredded mozzarella
- 2 large tomatoes, sliced
- ¼ c. balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp. honey
- 2 tbsp. finely sliced basil
- 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place bread halves on a large baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, mash together garlic and butter then season with salt and pepper. Spread butter mixture onto both baguette halves. Bake until the bread is toasted, about 15-20 minutes.
- Top the toasted bread with mozzarella and tomato slices and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5-10 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, make balsamic glaze: In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and honey. Simmer until reduced by half, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes (the mixture should coat the back of a spoon). Let cool.
- Drizzle garlic bread with olive oil and balsamic glaze. Garnish with basil, then cut into slices and serve warm.
