Easy baked brie
Description
This recipe begins by slicing off the top rind of a whole Brie wheel before baking it at 400°F until just melted, producing a smooth and creamy interior. Drizzling honey over the cheese enhances its natural richness with a gentle sweetness. Sage leaves briefly fried in olive oil develop a crisp texture and concentrated flavor, which contrast nicely with the soft cheese when scattered on top. Serving with bread or crackers provides a neutral vehicle to enjoy the melted Brie and its accompaniments.
Ready in under 15 minutes baking time, this baked Brie combines textures and flavors in a straightforward preparation suited to appetizer or snack occasions.
Ingredients
- 200 g (7oz) Brie cheese wheel
- 2 tbsp honey

- Place the baking dish you are using onto a baking sheet. Drizzle the brie generously with honey and place in a hot oven.
- Place the cheese in the oven and allow to bake until the cheese has just melted, 7-10 minutes.
- While the cheese is baking, fry the sage leaves in hot olive oil for a few seconds until they start to crisp then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
