Baked Brie Recipe
Description
The Baked Brie Recipe involves removing the top rind from a small round of Brie before baking it until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly. This exposes the creamy interior and allows it to soften further during baking. Afterward, it is topped with fig jam, sweetened dried cranberries, and chopped pecans which can be candied or toasted, adding sweetness and crunch. Fresh thyme leaves complete the topping with a subtle herbal note.
The warm, melted Brie blends savory and sweet flavors and offers a smooth, rich texture that pairs well with fruit and nut crackers, baguette slices, or kettle chips. Serving it hot ensures optimal creaminess and flavor experience.
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Brie cheese round French-style
- ⅓ cup fig jam
- ⅓ cup Cranberry sweetened, dried
- ¼ cup pecans roughly chopped, candied or toasted
- 2 prigs thyme fresh leaves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Use a sharp knife to cut along the top inside edge of the round of brie, then remove the top rind. If the top is shaggy or uneven, don't worry, it will smooth as it bakes. Place the brie in a 6-8 ounce gratin baking dish or cast-iron pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top the brie with fig jam, cranberries, and toasted pecans, and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. Serve hot with fruit and nut crackers, baguette, or kettle chips.
