I made this for an appetizer on Christmas Eve, and it was awesome! Everyone who tried it liked it, and we ate the whole thing! I actually couldn’t find brie the day we went to the grocery store for all our Christmas groceries (it was sold out), so I used Camembert instead and it was fine. Also, if you don’t care for apricots, use a different preserve! I made this again last week and used cherry preserves. I think I liked that even better!

Baked Brie with Apricot Preserves
(Pinterest)
Ingredients:
Brie wedge (or round)
Raw sliced almonds
Apricot preserves, 1 cup
Water crackers, apple slices, sliced bread (for serving)
Directions:
1.) Unwrap brie and put into a baking dish (leave the white, edible rind). Make sure the baking dish has edges, as the brie will spread when it melts.
2.) Top with apricot preserves
3.) Sprinkle a handful of sliced almonds on top
4.) Cover with foil
5.) Bake at 400 degrees for about 12-14 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the preserves have started to crystallize.
