Ingredients

Cheese

  • 1 wheel (about 7 ounces) Brie cheese

Fruit and Nuts

  • 1 cup dried figs, chopped
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped

Sweetener

  • 1/4 cup honey

Herbs

  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

Accompaniments

  • 1 baguette or assorted crackers

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the Brie.
  2. Prepare Brie: Place the Brie wheel in the center of a shallow, oven-safe baking dish to contain any melting cheese and toppings.
  3. Mix Topping: In a medium bowl, combine chopped dried figs, honey, chopped pecans, and finely chopped fresh rosemary. Stir well to evenly distribute flavors.
  4. Top Cheese: Evenly spread the fig, honey, and pecan mixture over the top surface of the Brie wheel ensuring good coverage.
  5. Bake Brie: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and just starting to ooze from the edges.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven and serve immediately with slices of baguette or an assortment of crackers for dipping.

Notes

  • Use fresh rosemary for optimal flavor. If unavailable, substitute with thyme or omit.
  • Make sure to use a shallow oven-safe dish to catch any melted cheese and toppings.
  • Serve promptly after baking to enjoy the Brie warm and gooey.
  • For a crunchier topping, toast the pecans lightly before mixing.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying honey amount to taste.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated before serving again.
