Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F. Place the bread and tomatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle both the bread and tomatoes with olive oil. Toss to coat.
Roast at 400F for 10-12 minutes, flipping the bread halfway through. Cook until the bread is toasted and the tomatoes have started to burst. You may need to pull the bread sooner depending on the type and size of bread you are using.
Slice the avocado lengthwise.
Slice open the burrata to reveal the creamy inside.
Divide the sliced avocado and creamy burrata between the two slices of toasted sourdough.
Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a few fresh basil leaves, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.

Notes
As always, if you are gluten-free, please make sure you read all ingredient labels to ensure you are using gluten-free ingredients. Ingredient formulas and production facilities changes and can vary among brands.
I used Schär Deli Style Sourdough Bread for this recipe, but you can use your favorite gluten-free bread. If you're not gluten-free, use any good sourdough.
If your bread is thicker or thinner than the bread I used, it may take more or less time in the oven. Keep an eye on the oven so your bread does not burn.
Alternatively, you can toast your bread in a toaster or even on the stove-top in a skillet. For skillet toast, add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and toast the bread a few minutes on each side until golden.
If you are serving a crowd and scaling up this recipe, you may want to place the tomatoes and bread on their own sheet pans. When I'm making this recipe for two, I like to use the same pan for ease of washing dishes.
