Ingredients
– 1 wheel of double cream brie cheese (250-350 grams) serves as the creamy base
– 1/3 cup cranberry sauce (canned or homemade) adds tartness and sweetness
– 1/4 cup chopped pecans provides crunch and nutty flavor
– Zest from half an orange infuses a bright, citrusy note
– 1 and 1/2 tablespoons honey enhances sweetness and binds the toppings
– A handful of fresh or frozen cranberries (optional) boosts the fruitiness
– Fresh rosemary for garnish adds a fragrant, herbal touch
Instructions
1-Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2-Place the wheel of brie in the dish and lightly score the top in a diagonal pattern with a sharp knife to help the heat penetrate.
3-Spread the 1/3 cup of cranberry sauce evenly over the brie for a tangy layer.
4-Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of chopped pecans on top, then add the zest from half an orange for a citrus twist.
5-Drizzle the 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of honey over it, and optionally add a handful of fresh or frozen cranberries for extra burst.
6-Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the cheese starts to bubble and almost oozes out, checking at the 18-minute mark.
7-Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh rosemary, and serve immediately with crackers or toasted baguette slices for the best melted texture.
