Time 3h5m

Yield 1 batch sauce

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup minced basil
10 roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 1/2 tablespoons maple sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and basil.
  • Pour half of this mixture onto a cookie sheet and spread it around.
  • Place tomatoes cut-side down on cookie sheet on top of the oil blend.
  • Drizzle tomatoes with remaining oil, then sprinkle with the maple sugar and salt.
  • Bake slowly in oven at 300 degrees for 3 hours.
  • Blend or process when done.
  • Serve hot over pasta, rice, or white beans (If you don't have 3 hours, you can roast them at 400 for 30 to 45 minutes or broil for 15 minutes, but it won't taste the same).
