Easy baked Brie with Honey Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on October 20, 2022 in Appetizers, Dips

Hi fellow foodies,

Most people like to prepare this baked Brie appetizer for the holidays.  Not me, I’m not the type of person who follows all the trends.   Since I was in a festive mood over the weekend, don’t ask me why it was just one of my happy moods.  And so I wanted to add this baked Brie appetizer as a starter for lunch.  I’m curious anyone out there feeling festive? Yes? No? Maybe? hmmm

I read an article a few months ago about French cheeses.  I was actually doing a bit of research to learn more about cheeses and it said that the French have lost count as to how many cheeses exist in France.  Whenever I had the opportunity to go to a French supermarket, I was overwhelmed with the cheese aisle.  So many different types of cheeses to choose from and not knowing where to start.  Since we can find brie in the supermarket all year round, why not be festive in May?

There are two tips/tricks I would like to point out if you going to try out this recipe for the first time.  Watch the timer!!  In my oven, the cheese had melted in 7 minutes.  If you leave it in the oven for more than 7 or 8 minutes it might just completely melt.  The second tip is to lay a piece of parched paper into the baking pan before placing the cheese.  This way you can place it onto a cheese platter or plate if you wish.   A delicious addition to any table and definitely a crowd-pleaser.  I garnished this with pomegranate, walnuts, and a few crushed almonds.  But you can garnish it with any fruit or nuts you prefer.

Our fourth episode of “Behind the Greek Apron” is live we hope you enjoy it!!  And if you are Greek or Non-Greek and have prepared a delicious Greek dish please submit a high-quality photo to our email:  behindthegreekapron@gmail.com  and we will post it on our Instagram account.  😉

Have a wonderful morning/afternoon/evening everyone!!

  • 1 round brie cheese
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp walnuts crusted
  • 1 tbsp almonds crusted
  • pomegranate optional

Instructions
 

  • Place a piece of parched paper (I always like to crumble the parched paper) into a shallow medium/large round shallow baking pan. Unwrap the cheese and place the cheese onto the parched paper.
  • Place into the pre-heated oven at 180 degrees for 7 to 8 minutes. But you must keep an eye on it so that it doesn't completely melt.
  • Garnish with your favorite toppings and pour some delicious honey over the cheese. I like to toast my bread with a bit of olive oil and oregano and bake them until they are not completely golden brown. Serve brie and indulge.

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
