Sun Golds are giving me LIFE these days! This Sun Gold Tomato Caprese with Burrata cheese and toasty breadcrumbs is truly the easiest summer noshing situation ever!

If I could eat nothing but sun gold tomatoes, burrata cheese, some stone fruit and maybe some pizza for the next 4 months, I WOULD BE THRILLED. This Sun Gold Tomato Caprese is true perfection. Sun Golds are what caprese dreams are made of. Next time you see some at your local market, snag a few pints and make this.
If you haven’t heard of Sun Gold Tomatoes before – let me be the first to welcome you to your new go-to tomato. The flavor of Sun Gold tomatoes is superb and gets sweeter the darker it gets. Like many yellow-orange tomatoes, Sun Gold tastes almost fruity and they’re easy to just pop into your mouth, one after the other.
It works as an appetizer if you want to serve with crostini. It can also work as a full meal if you want to just go to town by yourself… which I would highly recommend. No matter what way you slice it, this recipe is one you’ll want on repeat…

Gaby, nothing in the recipe ingredients about the breadcrumbs.

This sounds so delicious Gaby! This and some wine and it’s a perfect light summer dinner too! I think you left out the ingredients for the toasted breadcrumbs though- do you mind adding those? Love your recipes and your style! Thank you!!
