Ingredients
Scale
- 1 round (8–12 oz) brie cheese
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or softened butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Crackers, sliced baguette, or raw vegetables for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Trim any excess paper from the brie. Score a shallow crosshatch on the top rind.
- In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil (or butter), chopped herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the herb mixture over the top of the brie, pressing lightly so it adheres.
- Place the brie on a small baking sheet, in a shallow oven-safe dish, or on parchment.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the center is soft and the top is lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving with bread or crackers.
Notes
Use a shallow baking dish to catch melted cheese. Check at 10 minutes if your brie is smaller or your oven runs hot.
