Ingredients
- 8 oz brie
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp walnuts chopped
- 2 tbsp pistachios chopped
- 4 dried apricots chopped
- 1 sprig thyme optional
- 2 tbsp pomegranate arils
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Gently cut diamonds on the top rind but don't cut into the cheese. This is for easy serving. Place the brie in a cast iron skillet or a shallow baking dish.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey (or more if you like) on the brie and top with chopped walnuts, pistachios, apricots and the thyme sprig.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, the top will be soft to the touch and the cheese will still hold its shape.
- Take the pan out of the oven, top with pomegranate arils, more thyme and honey if desired.
- Serve immediately with crackers or crostini.

Notes
- You can simply leave out all the toppings and just use honey, maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Baked brie will stay melted for 15 minutes, however, it'll still be spreadable at room temperature.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1 to 2 minutes until melty again.
