Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large round bread boule
- 1 piece wheel of brie cheese (8-10 oz)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
- 1.5 tablespoons honey
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 bag baguette slices or crackers (for dipping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice off the top third of the bread boule and hollow out the interior, leaving about a 1-inch thick shell on all sides.
Lightly score the top rind of the brie wheel with a sharp knife, creating a crisscross pattern.
Place the brie in the hollowed-out boule, rind side up.
In a small skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant, but not browned.
Add the chopped rosemary, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir for 30 seconds to release their aroma.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle in the honey. Stir well to combine.
Sprinkle the garlic-herb-honey mixture evenly over the top of the brie. Add a pinch of salt and ground black pepper over the mixture for extra seasoning.
Place the stuffed boule on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the brie is melted and gooey.
Carefully remove the boule from the oven and transfer it to a serving platter.
Serve hot with baguette slices or crackers for dipping. Tear pieces from the boule itself for an extra treat!
