Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 cups diced strawberries
  • 1/3 cup pecans, rough chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
  • 1 wheel of brie (mine was 17.6 oz.)
  • serve with toasted baguette or crackers

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add balsamic and brown sugar to a small saucepan. Over high heat, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for approximately 20 minutes. This makes more than you will need. Store the leftover glaze in the refrigerator and use it on salads, veggies, etc.
  2. Toast pecans in dry cast or stainless pan on both sides. Rough chop toasted pecans. 
  3. Mix strawberries, pecans and 2 tablespoons of the balsamic glaze. Add basil just before serving.
  4. Place brie wheel on a sheet of parchment paper that is resting on a piece of aluminum foil.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes or so, until, when cheese is poked, you can feel the inside is thoroughly melted.
  6. Top with strawberries and drizzle with additional balsamic glaze. Serve with toasted baguette slices or sturdy crackers.

Notes

  • Recipe adapted from Show me the Yummy
  • Parchment paper must be placed on top of aluminum foil, or it will burn!
  • Serve on toasted baguette slices or crackers.
