Baked Brie Recipe

Baked Brie Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Garlic

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the top off the garlic bulb to expose the cloves, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and wrap it in aluminum foil. Roast for 30-35 minutes until soft and caramelized.

2. 2

   Sauté the Mushrooms

   While the garlic is roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the wild mushrooms, thyme, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and any moisture has evaporated.

3. 3

   Combine Ingredients

   Once the garlic is done, unwrap it and squeeze the soft cloves into the skillet with the mushrooms. Mix well and remove from heat.

4. 4

   Assemble the Brie

   Place the Brie cheese on a baking dish. Spoon the mushroom and roasted garlic mixture on top of the Brie.

5. 5

   Bake the Brie

   Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, until the Brie is soft and melted.

6. 6

   Prepare the Crostinis

   While the Brie is baking, slice the baguette into thin rounds and arrange them on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for the last 5-7 minutes of the Brie baking time, or until golden.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove the baked Brie from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve warm with the toasted crostinis.
