Ingredients

- 2 garlic cloves
- 100 g breadcrumbs
- 50 g grated parmesan cheese
- 10 g fresh parsley
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Step 2
Wash the cherry tomatoes and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Place them in a medium-sized baking dish.
Step 3
Drizzle the cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with the salt and black pepper, and toss gently to coat.

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Step 5
Chop the fresh parsley finely and stir it into the breadcrumb mixture.
Step 6
Spread the breadcrumb topping evenly over the cherry tomatoes, ensuring all are well-covered.
Step 7
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the topping becomes golden brown and the tomatoes are bubbling.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer, paired with crusty bread if desired.
