Balsamic Cherry Tomatoes in 30 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Toss the halved cherry tomatoes and smashed garlic directly on the pan.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, salt, and pepper until the sugar is mostly dissolved.
4. Drizzle the glaze over the tomatoes and toss with a spatula until every tomato is mahogany-coated.
5. Roast for 15–20 minutes until the skins wrinkle and pop, and the liquid bubbles and thickens into a syrupy consistency.
6. Remove the pan from the oven and fold in the fresh basil while the tomatoes are still sizzling.
