Baked Camembert with Hot Honey
Report
Is it truly the holiday season without a wheel of melty cheese? This is the best baked camembert ever: it's a fantastic appetizer baked with fresh herbs and fruity olive oil, then served with a drizzle of hot honey.

Instructions
- How to Make Baked Camembert
- Remove the paper wrapping from your wheel of camembert and place it back into the wooden box, if it came with one.
- Place the camembert onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and use a sharp knife to slice a crosshatch pattern on top of the cheese. Cut through the rind and into the cheese for the best results.
- Drizzle olive oil, fresh rosemary, thyme sprigs, and black pepper over the whole wheel, then bake in your preheated oven for 10-15 minutes. Smaller wheels (a medium sized camembert or smaller) is perfect around 12 minutes.
- Make Hot Honey
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the honey, hot sauce, red pepper flakes, and fleur de sel until the mixture is combined and the honey has turned into a loose liquidy consistency.
- Pour the hot honey into a heat-safe container for serving.
- Serve the Baked Camembert
- Place the baked camembert on a serving platter drizzled with hot honey. Serve with toasted bread, crostinis, crackers, grapes, fruit, and your favorite white wine.
Notes
- There are so many different ways to serve baked camembert, from sweeter toppings to savory spreads.
- A few of my favorites are studding the wheel with slices of a garlic clove and topping with crumbled crispy bacon, dolloping on some homemade cranberry sauce, drizzling over sweet maple syrup for a sweet route, or adding fresh chives to my classic herb topping.
- Let the cheese come completely to room temperature before wrapping it with plastic wrap and keeping in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- You can eat it cold or reheat in its wooden box or in a small dish until melty. Serve with crusty bread, fruit, and wine!
