Step-by-Step Instructions for Balsamic Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a large rimmed baking sheet.
Rinse fresh cherry tomatoes under cold water, slice them in half, and place cut-side up on the baking sheet.
Drizzle olive oil and balsamic over tomatoes, sprinkle with garlic, thyme, and sugar, then toss together.
Season liberally with salt and pepper, and spread in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roast for 30-40 minutes until tomatoes are soft and glazed, watching for visual cues.
Serve warm or let cool before storing in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
