Ingredients
- 12 ounces mushrooms, mixed varieties
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 2 small shallots, sliced into half rings (about 1/4 cup)
- 2 Tbsp white wine (about 1 splash)
- 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or the leaves from about 5 sprigs), plus a few more sprigs for garnishing
- 8 ounce wheel of brie
- 1/8 cup hazelnuts, or one handful, toasted and coarsely chopped.
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F.
- Place your brie in an oven-safe dish. If you would like to be able to serve the brie out of the same dish, make sure there is enough room for your mushrooms and hazelnuts. I used a 9-inch ceramic pie plate, which was perfect.
- Sautee your mushrooms in a dry pan, in batches if needed, until lightly browned and most of the moisture has evaporated. Set aside.
- Add the butter to the same pan, and sautee the shallots in the butter for about 5-10 minutes, until soft.
- Add the wine, thyme, and the mushrooms, toss together, and cook a bit more until most of the liquid cooks off and the mushrooms are fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Meanwhile, bake your brie in your preheated oven for about 7-12 minutes until soft. I covered mine loosely with foil.
- Remove the brie from the oven and top with the sauteed mushrooms and hazelnuts. Tuck a few more sprigs of thyme around the brie if you'd like. Serve immediately with a crusty loaf of bread.

Notes
- To toast hazelnuts put them on a dry baking sheet and roast at 350F for 10-15 minutes until golden and fragrant.
