Tips to make the best baked Brie
- Olive oil can be substituted with butter *or* you can do 1 tbsp olive oil + 1 tbsp unsalted butter.
- The onions can be prepared 1-2 days ahead. If you do make them ahead of time, make sure to cover them and store them in the refrigerator.
- Wine can be substituted with water or broth if desired.
- If your Brie comes in an oven-safe box, you can leave the Brie in the wooden box and place the box on the baking sheet, no parchment paper required!
- Serve your baked Brie immediately! Brie tends to set pretty quickly once it’s out of the oven so make sure people are ready to start eating!
- If you have leftovers, you can reheat them in the microwave until warm and creamy.
What to serve with it
- Lots of bread or crackers! I recommend French baguette slices but any bread or cracker will work!
- Pepper jelly. I have a pepper jelly recipe here! If you love sweet & spicy, this one’s definitely for you!
- Honey.
- Jam.
- Walnuts.
- Pomegranate.
- Apple or pear slices.
- Bacon.
