How To Make Garlic Butter Baked Brie Recipe
This must-try garlic butter baked brie is quickly prepared in three easy steps, and it’s an amazing piece fresh out of the oven.
First, score the top of the brie in a crosshatch pattern with a knife. Transfer it to a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
Next, combine garlic with melted butter and pour it over the brie. And sprinkle salt, ground black pepper and fresh thyme leaves on top.
Finally, bake for 15 to 20 minutes until melted in the center. Serve it warm with whole-grain crackers and crostini.
Baking Tips
Add more or less garlic while combing with the butter to your personal preference. Bake 5 minutes longer or less, depending on how big the brie is. You may check the melty level with a fork poke into the center of the brie. Baked brie goes well with cracks, crostini and fruits.
