Directions

1Preheat oven to 335°F. In an oven-safe dish, combine garlic cloves, cherry tomatoes, rosemary, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 30-40 minutes until tomatoes are soft.
2Prepare pesto by blending basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, and salt in a food processor or mortar and pestle. Gradually add olive oil until smooth. Add water if needed for a lighter texture.
3Spread pesto on toasted baguette. Layer arugula, sliced burrata, chili oil, and cherry tomato confit. Drizzle balsamic glaze on top.
