Baked Brie with Cranberries

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 wheel 8 oz Brie cheese
  • 1/2 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pecans toasted
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • Crackers or sliced baguette for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Place the Brie wheel in a small oven-safe baking dish or cast iron skillet.
  • Score the top of the Brie in a crosshatch pattern with a paring knife, cutting about 1/4 inch deep.
  • Bake 15 to 18 minutes until the center feels soft and jiggly when the dish is gently shaken.
  • Remove from the oven and spoon the cranberry sauce over the top, letting it pool at the edges.
  • Scatter the toasted pecans over the cranberries.
  • Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with rosemary.
  • Serve immediately with crackers or baguette slices for scooping, before it firms back up.

Good to Know

Score the rind and have the cranberry sauce measured out a day ahead; the Brie itself only needs its 20 minutes in the oven right before guests arrive.
