Baked Brie with figs and caramelized walnuts – The recipe
Ingredients for 2 people
- 2 Brie loaves (approx. 250 g each)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 50g walnuts
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 sprigs of rosemary
- 4 figs
- 100g grapes
In addition: Crackers or baguette
This is how you prepare the baked brie
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees top/bottom heat.
- Unwrap the brie and place each in a small one or both together in a larger, shallow baking dish that is slightly larger than the brie. Otherwise, you can also place the cheese in a piece of crumpled baking paper. Score the sweetbreads on the top in a star shape.
- Bake the brie in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan, roughly chop the walnuts and add them to the melted butter along with the honey. Let everything simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes so that the walnuts caramelize slightly.
- Wash the rosemary and shake dry. Add briefly to the pan and mix everything together.
- Carefully turn the brie out onto a serving plate or board. Rinse the figs and grapes briefly and cut the figs into slices. Garnish the brie with the candied walnuts and fruit and serve. Enjoy the liquid cheese with crackers or baguette.
