Raspberry Baked Brie
Sweet dreams are made of cheese, who am I to diss a Brie?
Ah, at last…Thanksgiving is finally here. It’s the time to show appreciation, spend time with family, and most importantly, EAT.
It’s not all fun & games though, oh no. Hosting a Thanksgiving dinner can be a big challenge too. Between juggling numerous dishes, making the home presentable, and patiently managing that one family member that always gets their hands into everything, Thanksgiving can seem more like a chore than it should.
So whenever I can find an easy but irresistible Thanksgiving recipe, you better bet that it’s going on the table. And what’s more irresistible than baked brie?
Looking for a starter that’s more savoury this Thanksgiving? No problem, check out this easy-peasy Butternut Squash Soup recipe!
Raspberry Baked Brie
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F.
Over medium heat, add walnuts, butter, and sugar to a small pot, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently so sugar doesn’t burn. Once done, transfer the walnuts to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread them out so that they don’t stick together. Let it cool.
If you’re feeling lazy, like I usually am, you can buy the walnuts already candied. Although, fresh is always better…just sayin’.
Next, place the brie in a rimmed baking dish, cast iron skillet, or brie baker. Sprinkle some brown sugar on top and bake for 12-15 minutes or until heated through.
If you’re using a brie baker, it will be closer to 15 minutes depending on your oven.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
While the brie sits, mix the honey and balsamic vinegar in a bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Ding! Now stir, add raspberries and toss to coat. Let raspberries sit in mixture for 2-3 minutes.
Now it’s serving time, baby! Sprinkle the candied walnuts on top of the brie, scoop the raspberries out and arrange nicely on top of walnuts. Finally, drizzle the honey-balsamic on top for that finishing touch.
Grab some crackers or slice a crispy baguette, dip, and devour!
