Ingredients

– 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions
Creating Bruschetta Pizza is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
2. Prepare the Topping: In a bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, diced mozzarella, minced garlic, chopped basil, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
3. Prepare the Crust: If using a pre-made crust, place it on a baking sheet or pizza stone. For homemade dough, roll it out to your desired thickness and place it on the prepared baking surface.
4. Spread Topping: Evenly distribute the tomato mixture over the pizza crust, ensuring that it covers the surface nicely.
5. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
6. Drizzle Balsamic Glaze: If desired, drizzle balsamic glaze over the pizza once it comes out of the oven for added flavor and visual appeal.
7. Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
