How to Make Burrata Caprese Appetizer

Next, bake for 20 minutes or until golden. Rotate baking sheets halfway through bake time. Set crostini aside and allow to cool before topping them with the Caprese salad.

On top of the Crostini spread a layer of Burrata cheese. Next, top with tomatoes, basil, freshly cracked salt, and pepper.

Finally, drizzle crostini balsamic glaze. Serve!
