Preheat oven to 300F.  Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.  Toss the tomatoes with the olive oil, honey, basil, salt and pepper in a bowl.  Transfer the tomatoes to the prepared baking sheet and turn them cut side up.  Bake about one and one-half hours, or until they begin to shrivel and brown slightly.   Let cool.
