Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 8oz brie round
- ¼ cup fig jam
- ¼ cup roasted & salted pecans chopped
- fresh thyme for garnish
- drizzle of honey optional
- flakey sea salt for sprinkling
- crackers or bread for serving
- grapes for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F degrees.
- Add slits across the top of your brie. About 5 one way and 5 the other to make a criss-cross. This just helps the jam soak into the brie. In my video on my Instagram, I totally forgot to do this but you should!
- Place your brie in an oven-safe dish. I used my 6in cast iron pan. Top brie with fig jam and cover the entire top. Then sprinkle with chopped pecans.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until warm and soft to the touch. Remove from oven, add a drizzle of honey (optional), and a sprinkle of flakey sea salt.
- Serve with crackers or bread, a side of grapes, and fresh thyme for garnish. Enjoy!
Notes
For Storing: If bringing to a party, you could prep everything and then just throw it in the oven when you get there. After cooking, store in an airtight container for 2-3 days in the fridge. You can reheat in an oven safe dish in the oven if desired.
