    WHAT IS BRIE?

    Brie is a soft white cheese, fairly mild in taste. It comes in a wheel or a triangle segment piece in the store. You can find it in the specialty cheese section. It can be eaten both cooked and uncooked. It's best if eaten at room temp or warm however-straight out of the fridge is not the best.

    WHAT INGREDIENTS DO YOU NEED FOR THIS BAKED BRIE?

    Because Brie is a mild delicious cheese it can pair either with sweet or savory toppings. For this recipe we're pairing it with natural flavors of

    • Apples (either McIntosh, Cortland or Granny Smith are best)
    • Golden Raisins
    • Apple Cider
    • salt
    • Oregano
    • Pecans

    HOW TO MAKE THIS BAKED BRIE

    To start we are going to prepare the topping by softening and seasoning the apples and raisins. In a small sauce pan combine the cider, salt, raisins and chopped apples.

    • Bring them to a boil for about 2 minutes
    • Strain out the juices
    • Set aside

    HOW TO BAKE BRIE

    Here are some pro tips to baking your brie:

    • place your brie on parchment paper. This helps for easy removal from the pan to platter (and no stick!)
    • Place your brie in a shallow baking dish

    DO YOU REMOVE THE RIND FROM THE BRIE BEFORE BAKING?

    NO. Bake the Brie with the white rind ON.

    1. with your brie in a shallow dish on parchment paper
    2. add your apples and raisins on top
    3. top with pecans if you desire
    4. add a sprig fresh or a sprinkle of dried oregano

    HOW DO I KNOW BRIE IS FINISHED BAKING

    Place the brie in the oven to bake for about 20 minutes. You will know it is done when you can press on the top and it is very soft. You do not want it to be too firm or  so melty it is seeping out of the rind. When you cut into it, it will slowly run out.

    WHAT DO I SERVE BAKED BRIE WITH?

    Cheesy gooey baked brie goes well with

    • apple slices
    • celery or veggie slices
    • crackers

    WHAT CRACKERS GO WITH BRIE?

    I LOVE these gluten-free baked crackers by Miltons. They come in a few different flavors that will compliment just about any dip! They have a great flavor, without being too "nutty" or "seed" flavor (which I find can be tricky in gluten free crackers, but not these!). They are light and crispy while also be strong enough to withstand a seriously cheesy dip. I use millions all.the.time. for every dip and party I go do.

    PRO TIP FOR SETTING UP YOUR BRIE CHEESEBOARD

    While your brie is baking us the container and a space saver on your chartuturie board. Then when your brie comes out of the oven you can transfer the brie quickly without it cooling down before serving to guests.

    another pro-tip? After the brie comes out of the oven cut the parchment paper around the brie really fast instead of trying to lift the melty cheese circle.
