Ingredients
- 1 wheel brie cheese (8 ounces)
- ½ cup red jam, I used Bonne Maman red fruits
- ¼ cup chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans (optional)
- Crackers or sliced baguette, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Make shallow diagonal slashes in the top of the brie with a sharp knife. This will make it easier to scoop crackers into it later.
- Spread the jam on top of the brie.
- Place the brie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the cheese is melty when you cut into it.
- Remove the baked brie from the oven and place it on a serving platter.
- Serve the baked brie warm with crackers or sliced baguette and chopped nuts sprinkled on top.
Notes
- Leave the rind on the cheese, as it will help hold the shape of the cheese once it is melted.
- Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your brie at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
- This brie appetizer is best enjoyed warm from the oven.
