Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Drizzle olive oil in a baking dish.

Combine cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, crumbled feta cheese, salt, and pepper in the dish. Drizzle with more olive oil.

Bake for about 30 minutes until the tomatoes burst and the feta is golden.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain well.

Mash the baked tomatoes and feta together with a fork. Mix in the cooked pasta and fresh basil until well combined.

Serve immediately, garnished with extra basil and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
