- 1 wheel of brie cheese
- 4 tablespoons honey
Instructions
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Prepare the Brie Start by removing the white rind from the brie cheese, discarding the rind. Place the brie in the center of a microwaveable plate. |
| 2 | Microwave the Brie Microwave the brie on the “defrost” setting (1/3 power) for about 2 minutes, or until the brie begins to melt and spread. This step creates that gooey, irresistible texture. 😋 |
| 3 | Prepare the Fruit Mixture If your fruits are in large or whole pieces, half or quarter them until you have large bite-size pieces. In a small saucepan, combine the mixed fruits, sliced green onions, walnuts, and honey. Cook over medium heat for about 4 minutes, stirring constantly. This creates a flavorful topping for the brie. 🍯🍇 |
| 4 | Assemble and Serve Pour the warm and fragrant fruit mixture over the melted brie cheese. Let it cool for a bit to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve your Nutty, Fruity Brie with your favorite crackers or sliced baguette. 🥖✨ |
| 5 | Pro Tips – To make the brie extra gooey, let it sit for a couple of minutes after microwaving before adding the fruit mixture. – You can customize the fruit mixture based on your preferences. Try adding dried fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flair. – If you’re serving a larger crowd, simply double or triple the recipe to make more servings. 🎉🧀 |
