Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

Maple Walnuts

  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 150 grams walnut halves 1 ½ cups
  • 1 pinch salt

Pull apart bread

  • 28 grams butter sliced about 2 tbsp sliced
  • 1 round sourdough or french loaf
  • 500 grams brie
  • 2 sprigs rosemary remove from stem
  • 3 tbsp honey

Hot honey

  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp hot sauce of your choice

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C

Maple Walnuts

  • Prepare a piece of parchment.
  • Heat up a small pan on medium-high heat. Once it is hot add in the walnuts along with the maple syrup and a pinch of salt. Keep moving around with a spatula until the maple syrup starts to caramelize and stick to the walnuts. When no moisture seems to be present and the maple has become thick turn out onto your prepared baking sheet in a single layer and let cool.

Pull-Apart Brie

  • Place your round bread on a cutting board. Using a bread knife carefully start to cut diagonal lines across the whole slice of bread leave about 2.5-3cm between each slice. Make sure you stop before you reach the bottom of the bread. Turn the bread around and make the same diagonal cut lines in the opposite direction.
  • Place the slices of butter deep into the seams we cut earlier.
  • Remove the rind of your brie as best you can, cut into large chunks.
  • Stuff all the seams with brie. Make sure you get deep down. You might need two chunks in each seem depending on how big your bread is.
  • Stick the pieces of rosemary all around into the the cheese and crevices.
  • Break apart the walnut halves and place them around in the same way.
  • Drizzle the whole thing liberally with the honey.
  • Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until the brie has completely melted . Serve immediately with extra walnuts, blackberry (cherry, black current) preserve, regular honey, and our hot honey.

Hot Honey (optional)

  • Add the honey with chili sauce. Mix well. If your honey is too thick warm it up a bit on the stovetop or microwave.

Notes

You can easily premake this, just leave out the honey drizzle and refrigerate. Then when your ready to eat, remove from the fridge, drizzle with honey, and bake for 15 -20 minutes or until the brie has completely melted. It might take a little longer depending on how long its been in the fridge
