Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 8-ounce wheel of brie cheese
- 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil
- 1 unit garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 sheet puff pastry (optional)
- 1 loaf crackers or baguette slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If using puff pastry, allow it to thaw and roll it out slightly on a floured surface to fit around the brie.
Finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, basil, and parsley. Combine them in a small bowl with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of honey. Mix well and set aside.
If not using puff pastry, simply place the wheel of brie on a baking sheet or in a small oven-safe dish.
Spread the sun-dried tomato mixture evenly over the top of the brie.
If using puff pastry, place the brie in the center of the pastry. Fold the pastry over the brie, sealing the edges and trimming off any excess dough. Flip the wrapped brie so the seam side is down, and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the brie is softened and the puff pastry (if used) is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers or baguette slices for dipping.
