Preheat your oven to 350°F. Add the grape tomatoes to a large baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.

Drizzle the tomatoes with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 4 cloves of minced or smashed garlic, 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano. Toss gently to coat.

Bake the seasoned tomatoes for 16–20 minutes, or until they burst. Gently smash any un-burst tomatoes halfway through the baking time if needed.

While the tomatoes are roasting, prepare the garlic bread crostinis. Slice the French baguette into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

In a small bowl, combine the 4 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped basil, and 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well.

Spread the butter mixture evenly onto one side of each baguette slice. Arrange the crostinis on a baking sheet.

Toast the crostinis in the oven for 5–7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Once the tomatoes are baked, lightly mash them in the baking dish with a fork or potato masher. Drain some of the excess liquid from the mashed tomatoes.

Top the warm tomato mixture with 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese and a handful of torn fresh basil. Add the 2 ounces of burrata (balls or stracciatella) to the dish.

Stir all the ingredients together until well combined and the burrata is melted and creamy. Serve the dip hot, scooping it generously with the prepared garlic bread crostinis.
