Maple Cream and Apple Butter Brie Cheese
Report
This Maple Cream and Apple Butter Brie Cheese combines a full wheel of Brie topped with apple butter, maple cream, and thin apple slices dusted with cinnamon. Baked until melty and soft, the dish offers a blend of creamy cheese and sweet, spiced fruit accents. It’s designed for serving alongside assorted crackers and bread, making it a featured cheese board item.
Description
The preparation begins by spreading a layer of apple butter over a whole Brie cheese wheel, followed by maple cream. Thin slices of apple are layered on top, sprinkled with cinnamon, and drizzled with maple syrup before baking until the cheese becomes molten and the toppings meld into a warm, sweet topping. The mixture of creamy Brie and fruit preserves creates a rich yet fruity contrast.
This baked Brie is ideal for a holiday or special occasion cheese board and pairs well with an assortment of crackers, crostini, and breadsticks. The recipe also suggests decorating the cheese board with various complementary cheeses, fruits, nuts, and charcuterie to round out the presentation.

Instructions
maple cream and apple baked brie
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking dish or pie plate with nonstick spray. I suggest using the dish you’d like to serve this in so you don’t have to transfer it.
- Spread the apple butter on top of the brie cheese. Gently spread the maple cream on next. Layer on the apple slices and sprinkle them with cinnamon, then drizzle with maple syrup.
- Bake the brie for 10 to 15 minutes, just until it almost bursts and the cheese is melty. Drizzle more maple cream or syrup on top right before serving. Serve with lots of crackers, crostini and breadsticks!
cheese board
- I like to place my cheese on the board first and then add in bowls with spreads or nuts. After that, fill in your empty spaces with what else you have! It will all come together as you work at it.
