MAPLE PECAN BAKED BRIE



Maple Pecan Baked Brie image

This savory-sweet appetizer is a decadent way to start your feast, but I promise there won't be a bite left over. A creamy Brie is baked to perfection and then smothered with a spicy pecan praline sauce. Be generous with the coarsely ground black pepper, as it really sends the dish over the edge!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (16-ounce) wheel of Brie
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup toasted and chopped pecans
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Crackers, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Shave off the top rind of the Brie (it is easiest to do this after it has been in the freezer for about 20 minutes). If the Brie came in a wooden box, return it to the original container. If not, create a makeshift "box" out of a few layers of aluminum foil, leaving the top of the Brie exposed.
  • Place the cheese on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until warm and gooey, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes before serving. Carefully transfer to a serving platter; you do not want the rind to puncture, if possible.
  • While the Brie is cooling, make the praline sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, maple syrup, and pecans. Cook, stirring constantly, until all of the ingredients are well combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in coarsely ground black pepper and remove from heat. Allow the mixture to cool for 5 to 10 minutes, until it has thickened up just a bit. Dollop the warm sauce over the baked cheese. (There may be extra praline sauce.) Serve with assorted crackers.

Tips for Making the Perfect Baked Brie with Maple Apples and Pecans

  • Choose a ripe brie. A ripe brie will have a soft, creamy interior and a bloomy rind. Avoid brie that is too hard or too soft.
  • Score the brie. Scoring the brie helps the cheese to melt evenly and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Use a variety of apples. Using a variety of apples gives the dish a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Sauté the apples in butter. Sautéing the apples in butter helps to caramelize them and bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Add the pecans. Pecans add a crunchy texture and a nutty flavor to the dish.
  • Bake the brie. Bake the brie until it is melted and bubbly. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve immediately. Baked brie is best served immediately, while it is still warm and gooey.

Conclusion

Baked brie with maple apples and pecans is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to impress your guests and it is sure to be a hit at your next party.
