Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (225 g) feta cheese block
  • 1 ½ cups (225 g) cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh basil leaves, a handful, roughly chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Baguette or crackers, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss 1 ½ cups (225 g) cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper until well-coated.
  3. Place the feta block in the center of an 8-inch (20 cm) oven-safe baking dish. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over the feta.
  4. Arrange the seasoned tomatoes around the feta in the baking dish, leaving space for roasting.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the feta is soft and slightly golden and the tomatoes are blistered and juicy. Optionally cover loosely with foil halfway if feta edges dry out.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes to allow the cheese to settle into a creamy texture.
  7. Gently mix the melted feta and roasted tomatoes together with a spoon or spatula. Sprinkle fresh chopped basil on top.
  8. Serve warm with sliced baguette, crackers, or veggie sticks.

Notes

If feta is crumbly or dry, soak in water for 15 minutes before baking for creamier texture. Roasting tomatoes longer (up to 35 minutes) increases sweetness. Use good-quality extra virgin olive oil for best flavor. For dairy-free, substitute vegan feta and coconut or almond oil. For gluten-free, serve with gluten-free crackers or veggie sticks.
