Baked Brie Recipe with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Description
The Baked Brie with Sun-Dried Tomatoes begins by combining sun-dried tomatoes and garlic with some oil for a flavorful topping. A whole wheel of brie is placed on a baking sheet, topped generously with this mixture, and baked at 350ºF until the cheese softens and oozes slightly.
Baking mellows the brie's richness creating a creamy interior, while the tomato and garlic topping adds balance with savory and pungent notes. A sprinkle of fresh parsley after baking provides a fresh herbaceous contrast and color.
This baked brie is ideal for serving warm as an appetizer alongside bagel chips or crackers, allowing for easy scooping of the creamy cheese paired with the concentrated tomato flavor.
Do not remove the rind from the cheese before baking, as it helps hold the cheese together and softens during cooking. Nutrition information may vary depending on products used and does not include serving accompaniments.
Ingredients
- 4 oz sun-dried tomatoes finely chopped
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Brie cheese 13.2 oz wheel
- 1-2 tablespoons parsley chopped
- bagel chips for serving, or crackers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Combine the sun-dried tomatoes and garlic in a bowl with some of the oil from the tomatoes. Place the wheel of brie on a baking sheet (you can place it on a piece of parchment paper to make it easy to transfer to a serving plate). Place the sun-dried tomatoes and garlic on top of the cheese.
- Bake in the oven until the cheese is soft and starts to ooze out the sides, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle on the parsley before serving.
Notes
- Do not remove the rind from the brie before baking to maintain structure and texture.
- Use the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes to add flavor and moisture to the topping.
- Serve warm with bagel chips or crackers for ease of eating and contrast in texture.
