Ingredients

2 beef tomatoes
250 ml passata

250 g mozzarella (2 balls), sliced thinly
50 g parmesan, grated

1 bunch fresh basil, leaves removed from stems
4 large slices sourdough bread

2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and drizzle in a little olive oil. Add two slices of sourdough bread and fry for about 2 minutes until golden on one side. Flip the bread and rub the cut side of a garlic clove onto the toasted surface to infuse flavor. Fry for another 2 minutes until golden, then transfer to a baking tray. Repeat with the remaining slices.
Step 2: Pat the mozzarella slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Layer mozzarella, fresh basil leaves, and sliced beef tomatoes evenly on each toast. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt, and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 15 minutes.
Step 3: Remove the toasts from the oven. Spread about 2 tablespoons of passata on each slice, sprinkle with grated parmesan and a little oregano. Return to the oven for another 5 minutes until the cheese melts and the toast is bubbly.

Step 4: Finish with more fresh basil leaves on top. Serve warm and enjoy your quick and tasty pizza toast!

Tips & Variations

Use day-old sourdough for crunchier toast that holds toppings better.
Try adding a pinch of chili flakes to the passata before spreading for a spicy kick.

Swap mozzarella for vegan cheese for a dairy-free version.
Fresh oregano can replace dried oregano for a more vibrant flavor.

Storage

Store any leftover pizza toast in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 5-7 minutes to restore crispiness. Avoid microwaving to keep the sourdough from becoming soggy.

How to Serve

The image shows two slices of toasted bread laid on a dark cooking surface, each topped with a melted and slightly browned layer of mozzarella cheese, followed by thick, round slices of red tomato, and sprinkled with grated cheese that has melted and browned in small bits around the edges. The cheese has a gooey texture and is slightly bubbling, covering most of the tomato slices. There are some crispy cheese bits scattered on the surface near the bread. The bread has a rough, toasted crust and a soft inside, visible beneath the cheese and tomato layers. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use bread other than sourdough?

Yes, any sturdy bread like ciabatta or a thick country loaf works well. Sourdough is preferred for its flavor and texture, but feel free to use what you have.
