Ingredients

12 servings

  • 1 multi-grain baguette
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ medium red tomato
  • ½ medium yellow tomato
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, plus 8 small whole leaves, for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Make the crostini: Turn the oven to broil on high.
  • Trim off the ends of the multi-grain bread, then slice crosswise into 12 even pieces. Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet in a single layer and brush on both sides with the olive oil.
  • Broil on each side for 2–5 minutes, until golden brown, watching closely to make sure the bread doesn’t burn. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Make the heirloom tomato topping: Finely dice the red and yellow tomatoes and place in a medium bowl. Add the olive oil, pepper, and sliced basil. Mix well. Let sit for 5–10 minutes.
  • Spoon the tomato mixture onto 4 of the crostini, then garnish with the Parmesan cheese, flaky sea salt, more pepper, and the whole basil leaves.
  • Enjoy!
