Make an Impressive Baked Brie in Mere Minutes

To make this delicious baked brie, get started by removing the top rind from an eight-ounce block of brie cheese. Place it into the center of a small baking dish or cast-iron pan, then pop it in a 350-degree oven. After about 15 minutes, you should have a melted and bubbly baked brie that’s ready for all your tasty toppings.

Remove the brie from the oven and drizzle it with three tablespoons of fig spread. Next, top it with one tablespoon of chopped walnuts, one tablespoon of chopped dried apricots and one tablespoon of chopped dried figs. Add a sprinkle of chopped fresh thyme and garnish with orange zest before serving.

You can pair your baked brie with all of your favorite healthy dippers! Go sweet with fresh apple and pear slices, or go savory with whole grain crackers and toasted whole wheat baguette. All four of these options are considered SmartCarbs on the Nutrisystem plan. Try our recipes for Whole Wheat Herb Focaccia Bread and Sweet Potato Crackers!
