Ingredients
- 1 wheel Brie cheese about 8 ounces
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 Fresh rosemary sprigs
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon pistachios
- Toasted baguette slices or crackers for serving
- red grapes for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the Brie cheese in a small baking dish or iron cast skillet.
- Use a sharp knife to create subtle cuts on top of the wheel without going too deep. Make 4-5 of them, creating a grid.
- Top it with honey and then dried thyme. Then, arrange rosemary sprigs around the Brie wheel to infuse it while it bakes.
- Bake it for 10 minutes, then add the pistachios (either whole or chopped) and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes or until the brie is soft and nicely melted.
- Serve it warm with toasted baguette slices and grapes.

Notes
- Look for a wheel of brie that feels soft to the touch. A ripe Brie will melt beautifully and have a rich, creamy texture. If it's too firm, it might not melt as well.
- When scoring the brie, make shallow cuts in a grid pattern. The slices allow the honey and herbs to seep in while keeping the cheese intact. Avoid cutting all the way through to prevent it from leaking out during baking.
- If you can, use fresh rosemary and thyme instead of dried.
- Try other nuts like walnuts or almonds.
- Baked brie is best enjoyed warm and gooey. Try to serve it right after it comes out of the oven. Bake it in an oven-safe skillet or ceramic baking dish so it stays warm longer.
- Fresh cranberries or pomegranate seeds add a festive flair and make your dish look stunning, especially during the holidays.
- If you can't find Brie, Camembert is a good substitute.
