Method

Prepare the Brie

  1. 1

    Crust the Brie

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix the pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, olive oil, salt, and black pepper together. Roll the Brie in the seed mixture to coat completely, then place it on a baking sheet.

    Slice the tops off the garlic bulbs, drizzle with honey and olive oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Wrap them in foil and roast in the oven for about 30 minutes or until soft.

Bake the Brie

    Bake the Brie

    Place the coated Brie in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and gooey.

    Slice the baguette into ½ inch slices. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, and salt. Brush the mixture on both sides of the baguette slices and bake them in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
