How To Make Baked Brie

Step 1: Preheat your toaster oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. While it's heating up, unwrap your block of brie cheese and place it on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut off the top rind of the cheese (you can save this to nibble on later).

Step 2: Next, use a spoon to scoop out the inside of the brie, being careful not to rip the sides of the cheese. Now's the time to get creative!

Step 3: Mix in your favorite spices, herbs, or jams to the scooped-out center of the brie. We like to add a touch of honey and some freshly chopped rosemary, but feel free to experiment with different flavor combinations. Once you're satisfied with your filling, spoon it back into the center of the brie round.

Step 4: Carefully transfer your filled brie round onto a piece of parchment paper big enough to fit in your toaster oven. If you don't have parchment paper, you can use aluminum foil. Just be sure to crinkle it up first so that it doesn't stick to the cheese.

Step 5: Place the filled brie in the middle of the parchment paper or foil and then bring up the sides, folding them over the top of the cheese like a little package.

Step 6: Put your wrapped block of cheese into the preheated toaster oven and let it bake for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on it towards the end so that it doesn't overcook—nobody likes burnt brie!

Step 7: Once it's finished baking, carefully remove it from the toaster oven (it'll be hot!) and transfer it onto a serving platter. Garnish with fresh herbs or fruit, if desired, and serve immediately with crackers or bread for dipping. Enjoy!
