Ingredients

6 servings

5 medium (about 2 pounds) tomatoes ((peeled, halved, cored and seeded))
½ tsp salt
½ tsp granulated white sugar
freshly ground black pepper
½ whole (4 cups) baguette ((cut into 3/4-inch cubes)
4 tbsp (½ stick) unsalted butter, (melted)
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Spray a 9x13-inch pyrex casserole dish with nonstick spray (if you have a smaller rectangular dish, that will work too).
Using a food processor, pulse the tomato halves, salt, sugar and a pinch of pepper until coarsely pureed.
Place the bread cubes in the prepared dish and drizzle the melted butter over to coat. Top with the tomato puree and gently mix to distribute.
Bake until crusty and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle the cheese on top and bake for 10 minutes more. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
