Hassleback Caprese Salad | Good Cook

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Wash the tomatoes and slice them thinly, making sure not to cut all the way through so they stay intact.

Slice the mozzarella cheese into thin rounds, similar in thickness to the tomatoes.

In a baking dish, alternate layers of sliced tomatoes and mozzarella, fanning them out to create a beautiful presentation.

Drizzle olive oil over the layered tomatoes and mozzarella, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is slightly melted and the tomatoes are tender.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.

Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top and garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
