Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece (approximately 8 oz) round of brie cheese
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon (finely chopped) fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (optional, for serving) baguette or crackers
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unwrap the brie and place it in a small, oven-safe dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, minced garlic, honey, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Drizzle the garlic-lemon mixture evenly over the top of the brie, ensuring it covers the surface and drips slightly over the sides.
Place the dish with the brie in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and oozy.
Remove the baked brie from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh, vibrant touch.
Serve immediately with slices of baguette or crackers for dipping.
