Instructions for Caprese Toast
Prepare the Garlic Oil
In a small saucepan, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil over low heat. Add the minced garlic cloves and cook gently until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Toast the Bread
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the sourdough bread slices on a baking sheet and brush each slice with the garlic oil. Toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy.
Slice the Tomatoes and Mozzarella
Slice the Roma tomatoes and fresh mozzarella into thin rounds.
Assemble the Toast
Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each slice. Layer the sliced tomatoes and mozzarella on top, followed by fresh basil leaves.
Drizzle and Serve
Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the assembled toast and finish with a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Serve immediately.
