Ingredients

  • 4 Cups Cherry tomatoes
  • 6-8 Leaves Fresh Basil, torn
  • 6-8 Cloves Garlic, leave whole
  • ¼ Cup Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt
  • ½ tsp Ground Pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • Place tomatoes, basil, and garlic on a baking sheet.
  • Drizzle with olive oil
  • Sprinkle with Salt & Pepper
  • Hold both ends of the baking sheet and gently shake back and forth so the tomatoes roll in the olive oil to get fully coated.
  • Place the baking sheet in the hot oven and bake for 30-45 minutes or until the tomatoes have burst and created a thicker, "jammy" sauce. Baking time depends on your oven and the water content in your cherry tomatoes.
    Shake tray half way through cooking time to rotate the tomatoes.
    Do not remove if watery, they need more time.
