Baked Brie Recipe Instructions

Whether you’re entertaining or just want a tasty snack for a cozy night in, this is your go-to recipe! It comes together with minimal effort and is ready to enjoy in just 20 minutes.

1. Prep: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease an oven-safe skillet that is slightly bigger than your wheel of cheese. Slice the brie ½-⅔ of the way down into 1-inch slices.
2. Slice: Rotate the brie 90 degrees and slice again so you end up with little diamonds.
3. Add Toppings: Add the brie to the prepared pan, then top it with the garlic, fresh thyme, and a light sprinkle of Italian seasoning.
4. Bake: Drizzle the honey over the top before baking for 13-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly. Serve immediately.
