1 to 2 teaspoons dried thyme |
8 1/2 -inch-thick slices baguette, cut on the bias |
1 clove garlic |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Place the tomatoes cut-side up in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper and the thyme. Roast 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours, or until the tomatoes are very soft and slightly shrunken.
