Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Toast the pine nuts in a medium skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently until golden brown. Transfer to a small bowl to cool.
  2. In a shallow serving dish, drizzle olive oil and balsamic glaze, add sliced garlic, and season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix gently.
  3. Make gentle cuts in the top of the burrata balls and place them on the sauce mixture, allowing the creamy center to ooze out.
  4. Layer pesto over the burrata, followed by sun-dried tomatoes, toasted pine nuts, and fresh basil for garnish.
  5. Drizzle with extra balsamic glaze and sprinkle cracked black pepper before serving with warm bread or pita chips.
