Burrata toast is a super quick 5-minute lunch idea or easy appetizer. Top burrata toast with the easy blistered tomatoes with crispy garlic (recipe below), or try any of the topping ideas from the notes below.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Spray or brush a tiny bit of olive oil, then add the tomatoes. Let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until they start to blister.
Add about a tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Lower the heat, stir, and cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic turns golden and starts to get crispy. Season with sea salt.
Remove from heat and transfer to a heat-safe bowl. Let cool for a few minutes while you prepare the toast.
Make the burrata toast:
Brush or spray each slice of bread with olive oil on one side. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, place the toast oil side down, and toast for a couple of minutes until the bread is toasted and warm.
Use a sharp knife to score an "X" on top of the burrata ball (make a cross on top), then slice the burrata in half.
Use a spoon to transfer half a burrata ball on top of the toast. Spread the burrata across the whole slice of toast.
Season with salt and pepper. Add a few blistered tomatoes and crispy garlic pieces on top. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Enjoy immediately!See notes below for lots more topping ideas.
Notes
Try these toppings below! I listed them in order that you put them on top of the toast. Most of the time the burrata goes first right on top of the toast, except for a few instances where I recommend another ingredient below the burrata:
Sliced tomatoes, burrata, black pepper, drizzle of balsamic glaze, fresh basil.
The nutrition facts are estimated for 2 slices of bread and half a burrata ball without any additional toppings, but will vary depending on the brand and size of your bread, burrata, and how much toppings you add to each toast.
