Ingredients
- BAKED BRIE:
- 8 ounces round brie
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- ⅓ cup apricot jam
- ⅓ cup chopped walnuts
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- pinch of lemon zest, optional
- thyme springs, according to taste
Method
- Heat the oven to 375°F and line a baking tray with foil, then set the round of brie in the center.
- Score diagonal cuts through the rind on top of the brie, then cut in the opposite direction to make a crosshatch pattern, keeping the cuts shallow.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the top, spoon on the apricot jam, and scatter the chopped walnuts over the jam.
- Sprinkle on the red pepper flakes and lemon zest if using, and lay a sprig of thyme in the center.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese is very soft and creamy, and serve the brie warm straight from the tray.
