Ingredients
- 1/2 pint (8-ounces) strawberries diced plus a few for garnishing
- 1 tablespoon brown or white sugar
- 1 (12-ounces) Brie Cheese wheel (anywhere from 8 to 14 ounces will work)
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh mint or fresh basil
- 1/3 cup candied almonds or pecans or a combination, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Place the strawberries in a mixing bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Toss gently and allow it to sit while you bake the brie.
- Unwrap the brie and place it in a small baking dish. Score the top of the cheese making sure to only penetrate the rind.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted (gently pat the cheese. It should feel soft and most likely will start to ooze. Remove from the oven.
- During the last 5-6 minutes of baking, add the balsamic vinegar, candied nuts, and mint (or basil) to the strawberry mixture and toss to combine.
- Top the hot brie with the strawberry mixture, garnish with a few whole strawberries and serve with an assortment of crackers and or a baguette.
Notes
- If you bake the brie cheese on a baking sheet pan, use parchment paper. To transfer the warm cheese to a serving dish, simply lift the cheese by using the sides of parchment paper as handles.
- Use a combination of berries instead of just strawberries.
- This recipe is best when served right after is baked.
- Leftovers will keep stored in the refrigerator covered or in an airtight container for a day.
