Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)

- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves (optional)

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces to create about 8-12 slices, depending on the size of your baguette.
Step 3
Brush one side of the baguette slices with olive oil and place them oiled side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with the remaining olive oil. Brush this mixture evenly over the oiled side of the baguette slices.
Step 5
Top each slice with halved cherry tomatoes, cut side up. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Step 6
Season the slices with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the baguette slices are golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your Tomato Baguette Pizzas as a snack, appetizer, or light meal.
