Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the cherry tomatoes and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the tomatoes and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Peel and crush the garlic cloves, then add them to the baking sheet with the tomatoes.
Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft and lightly caramelized. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
While the tomatoes are roasting, slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds. You should have approximately 12-15 slices.
Brush each baguette slice with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.
Toast the baguette slices in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Remove and set aside.
Chop the roasted garlic finely and mix it into the roasted tomatoes.
Spoon the roasted tomato mixture onto each baguette slice.
Top each bruschetta with a fresh basil leaf and drizzle balsamic glaze over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
