Description
Soft, smooth, melty brie with a sweet brandy pecan topping!
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces brie round
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 2 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 1/2 Tablespoon brandy
- Crackers
- Baguette slices
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place brie round in a baking dish.
- Combine pecans, brown sugar, and brandy in a bowl. Stir until mixed.
- Spread the pecan mixture evenly on the top of the brie round. Leave about 1/8 inch around the sides of the brie.
- Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes or until the pecan mixture is bubbling and the brie is soft to the touch.
- Remove from the oven. Use a large spatula to carefully transfer the brie round to your serving platter (if not serving in baking dish).
- Serve with crackers and baguette slices.
Notes
Substitutions. Use a clear juice; apple, pear, white grape or water in place of the brandy. Use leftover Sugared Pecans instead of regular pecans.
When brie is done it will be soft to the touch, it should be almost runny when cut. It will firm up as it cools. Using an 8 ounce brie round is perfect for a small group or as one element on a cheese or charcuterie board.
This recipe is easily adapted for larger or smaller brie rounds. Adjust the pecans, brown sugar, and brandy accordingly.
