Baked Brie with Jam
Melty Baked Brie with jam, fresh thyme, almonds, and crackers! This baked brie recipe is only 5 ingredients and SO easy and quick to make!
Equipment
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 8 oz Brie, wheel
- 3 tbsps Strawberry Preserves
- 1 tsp Fresh Thyme
- 1/4 cup Sliced Almonds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Make horizontal and vertical slits in the brie and top with strawberry preserves, fresh thyme, and almonds.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, until cheese becomes melted but isn't soupy. (TIP: press with the back of a spoon to see if the cheese has melted on the inside)
- Place on a serving board and enjoy with bread, crackers, fruit, etc.
Notes
- If you're making this for a larger crowd, you can use a 16 oz wheel. (just be sure to double the rest of the ingredients in the recipe too!)
- Brie doesn't last as long as other cheeses, so be mindful of the expiration date.
- If you can't find brie, camembert works here too! If you can't find either of those, try Coulommiers or Reblochon cheeses.
- I used fresh thyme, however, if you're unable to find fresh thyme or don't have any, dried thyme will work just fine. You'd only need 1/4 teaspoon if using dried thyme.
- Be sure to use round blocks of brie as opposed to the sliced brie/triangular chunks/wedges of brie.
- Don't overcook the brie! I recommend not baking it any longer than 15 minutes or else it'll get soupy. If this happens, let the cheese cool for 15 minutes.
