Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a small mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss gently until the tomatoes are evenly coated.

Spread the tomato mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place it in the preheated oven.
-
Roast the cherry tomatoes for about 15 minutes or until they are slightly shriveled and juicy.
-
While the tomatoes are roasting, toast the bread slices until golden brown and crisp. You can use a toaster or toast them in a skillet with a little butter for extra flavor.
-
Once the bread slices are toasted, evenly distribute the crumbled Adygei cheese over them.
-
Take the roasted cherry tomatoes out of the oven and let them cool for a minute or two.

Place the roasted cherry tomatoes on top of the Adygei cheese-covered bread slices.
-
Garnish the cheese toasts with fresh basil leaves for added aroma and flavor.
