Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• brie of choice I used 3 small round pieces of brie
• ⅓ cup raw hazelnuts or any nuts you like
• 3 heaping tablespoons fig jam any jam you enjoy
• slices of fresh figs are optional
• thyme on top for garnish is optional

Instructions

 

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°F. Chop up any nuts of choice and add them to a bowl with your favourite fig jam and mix it together.
• Take the brie and score of the top with a knife so that all of those flavours can infuse. Add the mixture on top and optionally you can add a slice of fig.
• You are more than welcome to present it like this on charcuterie or take the extra step and bake it for 30 to 40 minutes in the oven until completely melted.
• Enjoy it with a fresh baguette or crostini and live your life. This is best served fresh out of the oven as the cheese will harden as it cools. Enjoy

Notes

You can use any brie you personally like.

Any jam or preserve works in this recipe and any nut as well. Feel free to improvise.

Please keep an eye on your cheese because yours could take less time depending on the oven and depending on the thickness of the cheese. My brie was thick so it took more than 30 minutes but yours could take 15 to 20 minutes. 

If you are allergic to nuts, feel free to leave them out.
