Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/2 inch thick slices to create approximately 8 pieces.
Place the slices onto a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 5 minutes, until they are lightly browned and crispy.
While the bread is toasting, cut the tomatoes in half and grate the cut sides over a large bowl. Discard the skins.
Add the salt and black pepper to the grated tomatoes and mix gently to combine.
Remove the toasted baguette slices from the oven. While they are still warm, rub each slice with the cut side of the garlic clove to impart a subtle garlic flavor.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the garlic-rubbed baguette slices.
Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice of baguette.
Tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the top of the tomato-topped baguettes.
Serve immediately as an appetizer or snack, and enjoy the fresh and vibrant flavors!
