Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients
  

  • 1 8 oz wheel of brie cheese
  • 3 tablespoons honey plus more for serving
  • 1/2 cup walnut halves roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary optional
  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed (optional)
  • 1 egg beaten (optional)
  • Crackers baguette, and apple slices, for serving
  • Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until fragrant. Set aside.
  3. Place the brie on the prepared sheet and score the top rind in a crosshatch pattern. (Or wrap the brie in puff pastry with some of the honey and walnuts, seal it, and brush with the beaten egg.)
  4. Bake the plain brie for 12-15 minutes (or the pastry-wrapped brie for 20-25 minutes), until the center feels soft.
  5. Drizzle with honey, scatter the toasted walnuts, and sprinkle with rosemary and flaky sea salt. Serve immediately with crackers, bread, and apple slices.
