A quick and easy baked brie board featuring warm, melty brie topped with honey-glazed toasted walnuts and fresh seasonal fruit, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole wheel of brie cheese (8 oz / 225 g), preferably creamy triple-cream
  • 1 cup (120 g) walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 3 tablespoons honey (raw or wildflower preferred)
  • 2 cups fresh fruit assortment (e.g., red grapes, green apple slices, fresh figs or seasonal fruits)
  • Small sprig of fresh rosemary or thyme (optional, for garnish)
  • Crackers or sliced baguette for serving (use gluten-free crackers for gluten-free option)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, toss the chopped walnuts with 2 tablespoons of honey until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the honey-coated walnuts in a single layer on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake the walnuts for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until toasty and glossy. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  5. Place the wheel of brie on the same or a separate oven-safe dish.
  6. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey over the top of the brie.
  7. Optionally, tuck a few small rosemary or thyme leaves on top of the brie.
  8. Bake the brie for 12-15 minutes until soft and melty but still holding its shape.
  9. While the brie bakes, wash and slice the fresh fruit as desired.
  10. Carefully transfer the baked brie to a serving board.
  11. Scatter the warm honey walnuts around the brie.
  12. Arrange the fresh fruit and crackers or bread slices artistically around the board.
  13. Garnish with a fresh herb sprig if desired.
  14. Serve immediately while the brie is warm and gooey.

Notes

Watch the walnuts carefully while toasting to prevent burning. Drizzle honey on the brie just before baking to avoid burning the honey. Slice fruit just before serving to keep it fresh. For gluten-free, use gluten-free crackers; for nut-free, substitute walnuts with honey-glazed pumpkin seeds. Brie can be gently reheated at 300°F (150°C) for 5-7 minutes if needed.
