# Ingredients:
→ Main Components
01 -
1/4 cup of fig spread
02 -

→ Optional Toppings

1 tsp of fresh thyme leaves

A tablespoon of honey
05 -
Roughly chopped pecans or walnuts (1/4 cup)
→ For Serving
06 -
Choose from crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh fruit
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it's ready to go.
02 -
Take the brie out of its packing. If there's a wooden box, feel free to use it to hold the cheese—it looks nice. If not, place it on a small oven-safe dish.
03 -
Use a knife to lightly slice a crisscross pattern across the top. This makes it easier for the jam to soak in while it bakes.
04 -
Spread a layer of fig spread over the brie. If you'd like, sprinkle the nuts, thyme, or drizzle some honey on top now.
05 -
Slide it into your oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. You'll know it's good to go when the cheese softens—press it gently to test.
06 -
Let it cool for about 5 minutes to avoid burns, then present it with bread, crackers, or some fruit on the side.
# Notes:
01 -
Best enjoyed warm while the cheese is soft and gooey
02 -
Prepare everything beforehand and bake just before serving
