Ingredients

  • cup cranberry sauce preferably fresh
  • 1 8- ounce wheel of brie cheese
  • 1 teaspoon honey optional
  • 1 sprig of rosemary
  • Crusty bread or crackers for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Remove the top rind from the brie wheel and place the cheese in a small oven-safe dish, such as a pie or gratin dish. Transfer the dish to the oven and bake until the brie begins to soften and melt, about 7 minutes.
  • Remove the dish from the oven. Generously spoon cranberry sauce over the brie and drizzle with honey, if desired. Mix slightly to blend the flavors. Position the rosemary sprig on top of the brie and return the dish to the oven.
  • Continue baking for an additional 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly. Serve the warm dip alongside crusty bread or crackers for dipping.

Notes

  • Cranberry Sauce: Fresh cranberry sauce is recommended for best flavor.
  • Crostini Preparation: Slice a baguette or a loaf of French or Italian bread into ¼-inch slices, brush each slice with olive oil on both sides, and bake at 375ºF for approximately 10 minutes, turning halfway through for even toasting.
