This is seriously one of the best appetizers I’ve ever made, and easy to throw together! Ripe bursted cherry tomatoes, stir in burrata, and scoop it all up with crispy garlic crostinis. A total flavor bomb… have the recipe ready, people WILL ask for it! Perfect to bring to a dinner party or when you just need a quick, simple appetizer!
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Add grape tomatoes to a baking dish and drizzle with just enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the dish. You want your tomatoes to be in one layer, so make sure you use a baking dish large enough.
Season with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic, fresh parsley, and oregano.
Bake at 400°F for 16-20 minutes until tomatoes begin to burst.
While the tomatoes bake, slice the baguette and spread with garlic butter made from butter, garlic, salt, seasonings, and parmesan.
Toast the baguette slices for 5–7 minutes until golden.
Slightly mash down the tomatoes and drain some of the liquid. Top the roasted tomatoes with parmesan, fresh basil, and burrata filling. If you’re using a ball of burrata, split it in half, squeeze the filling in, then mix. Next, chop up the outer shell and mix that in.
Stir everything together and serve hot with the garlic bread crostinis.
Smash the tomatoes halfway through baking if they don't burst naturally. Drain additional liquid.
Serve the dip hot for the best flavor experience, but delicious once it cools off, too!
Adjust the red pepper flakes to your heat preference.
Use fresh herbs for a more vibrant flavor.
Can I use a different type of cheese instead of burrata?
Yes! I always use stracciatella (burrata filling) but here are some other options: ricotta, mascarpone, feta, Boursin.
Can I make the garlic bread ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the garlic butter and toast the bread ahead of time. Reheat briefly before serving.
What can I serve with this dip besides garlic bread?
You can serve it with crackers, pita chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
How do I store leftovers?
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat at 350 for 15-20 minutes before serving.
Can I make this dip spicier?
Yes, increase the amount of red pepper flakes or add a pinch of cayenne pepper. A dash of hot honey would also be amazing!
