These are a perfect before dinner appetizer or party nibble. Why not make these Roasted Cherry Tomato and Caramelized Onion Bruschetta bites for you next weekend entertaining. Crispy pieces of baguette topped with fresh arugula, caramelized onions and roasted cherry tomatoes. Delicious!
How To Get The Perfect Bite
- I made these on diagonally cut baguette bread, so the slices are quite small, which to make for great party food.
- If you are making them for a party, you can crisp your bread in advance, but don’t seal it in cling film once you have done this because it will make the bread go soft. Just leave them on a plate.
- Then I would recommend once they are all topped off and ready serve, put them under the grill for just a couple of minutes just before serving.
And that really is all you need to do to get these just perfect. I find that nibbles are a just a fantastic way to entertain. These would be great as an appetizer or a nibble food to go with a drink. Any kind of bruschetta is great really.
If you type “bruschetta” in the search bar on the blog, you will see many more ideas. One of my personal favourites is the Mediterranean Bruschetta.

Roasted Cherry Tomato Bruschetta
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 large onion peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 Baguette cut into 12 slices on a diaganol
- A few handfuls of Arugula
- Olive oil
- Sprinkle of rosemary
- Sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Put the cherry tomatoes on a large baking tray so they are not overlapping each other. Drizzle with olive oil and roast them for about 20 minutes.
- While the tomatoes are cooking, get your onions going. In a medium sized skillet heat about 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and add the onions. Cook over a high heat for about 3-5 minutes, stirring as they brown. Reduce heat to low and continue to let them caramelize and cook. This will take up to 20 minutes. They onions will be done when they are really soft and a nice golden brown colour. Remove from heat.
- Lay all of your bread on a large baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and put under your grill for about 2-3 minutes per side. You want to crisp up the bread. Remove from oven. Top with arugula, onions, and cherry tomatoes. Sprinkle over a little salt and rosemary. Ready for your guests!
