Air Fryer Balsamic Bruschetta, an old-fashioned Italian appetizer served throughout Italy. Brushetta is a classic Italian dish, with usually some time of tomato spread. This is so easy and fun to make in the air fryer!

Brushetta was Italy’s first sandwich. There are so many types of Bruschetta. In Italian, Bruschetta means toast, to be more accurate, roast over coals. This was one of Italy’s first BBQ dishes. It was also a great way to use up the extra oil Italy had.

The tomato mixture on top is one of the most common toppings of Bruschetta. This is a straightforward and versatile recipe to switch out. The use of the air fryer allows you to make a ton of appetizers quickly. This is an excellent use of the air fryer, and it makes a great summer snack. Kids love them because they use their fingers to eat them, and all food is better when eaten with your fingers.

I added Balsamic vinegar, which adds a quick punch to the appetizer, but at the same time, adds an outstanding balance between the olive oil and vinegar. The best thing to do is make the tomato mixture the night before, and then let the flavors set in the refrigerator, stir right before you want to add it to the top of the toasts.

What Is Bruschetta?

Bruschetta is a type of Italian appetizer that consists of toasted bread topped with chopped tomatoes and garlic. It’s often seasoned with salt, pepper, olive oil, and basil. The word “bruschetta” comes from the Italian verb “bruscare,” which means to roast over coals or on an open grill. Bruschetta can be served as an entrée for lunch or dinner if it’s eaten alone or if it’s accompanied by other dishes like prosciutto di Parma (cured ham), fresh mozzarella cheese, grilled eggplant caponata, etc., but it’s most commonly eaten in Italy before a meal.
