Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Place the vegan Camembert cheese round into a small, oven-safe dish or a cheese baker if you have one.
Using a sharp knife, carefully score the top of the cheese in a criss-cross pattern to allow the flavors to infuse.
Peel the garlic cloves and slice them thinly.
Pluck the leaves from the rosemary sprigs.
Insert the garlic slices and rosemary leaves into the cuts on the top of the cheese.
Drizzle the olive oil over the cheese, making sure it seeps into the cuts.
Season the top with sea salt and black pepper.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is soft and slightly golden on top.
While the cheese is baking, slice the crusty bread or baguette.
Optional: Lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler for extra crunch.
Once the cheese is baked, remove it from the oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the baked vegan Camembert warm alongside the bread slices for dipping.
