Ingredients

  • 1 12-14 oz wheel of brie
  • 1/2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 tbsp. honey
  • Sea salt, optional
  • Toasted bread, apple slices, and/or grapes, for serving

Directions

  1. 1

    Remove the brie from the refrigerator. Remove any paper wrapping and return the wheel to the bottom part of its wooden box or place it on a small square of parchment paper (that is slightly larger than the brie wheel itself). Make very shallow slits across the top of the brie, just through the rind layer, every ½-inch to 1-inch, in a criss-cross pattern. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the brie on a small sheet tray. Sprinkle the top with the fresh thyme and rosemary, and drizzle with honey. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes, until very soft.

  3. 3

    Carefully transfer the brie, in the box or on the sheet of parchment paper, to a serving plate. Serve warm alongside toasted bread, apple slices and/or grapes, for serving.
