Best Blt Baked Brie Recipes

BAKED BRIE WITH PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cheese on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate; cool about 20 minutes.
• While cheese cools, place nuts on a clean baking sheet; bake until toasted and fragrant, 7 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle nuts over cheese.
• In a small saucepan, combine sugar and maple syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat; simmer until foamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle warm sauce over slightly cooled cheese and nuts; serve with crackers or baguette.

BAKED BRIE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a large chef's knife, cut the white rind off the brie and discard (this works best when the cheese is very cold).
• Roll the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Place the brie at the center of the dough square and then spread the jam over the top of cheese. Drape the four corners of the dough, one at a time, across the brie to enclose it. If there is too much overlapping dough, trim the sides before draping. You want the dough to just cover the brie.
• Brush the egg wash over the brie, making sure it does not pool where it meets the tray or it will stick. Sprinkle with the sugar if using. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 8 to 10 minutes before serving warm.

BLT BAKED BRIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Using a pointed serrated knife or other sharp knife, cut the top of the bread off, using the Brie wheel as a guide for the size of the circle.
• Cut the top of the bread into rough cubes and place on a baking sheet. Pull more bread out of the center where the cheese wheel will be placed. Tear the bread into chunks and place on the baking sheet with the other cubes. Drizzle the cubed bread with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then push to one side of the baking sheet, making room for the boule.
• Carefully cut the skin off the top of the cheese, then nestle the cheese in the center of the boule. Place the boule on the baking sheet with the cubed bread and bake until cubes are toasted and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine balsamic vinegar and sugar. Bring to a simmer and reduce by half to make a syrup. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, basil, salt and pepper.
• To finish, top the melted cheese with shredded lettuce. Use a slotted spoon and top the lettuce with the tomato mixture, then top with the chopped bacon. Drizzle over the balsamic reduction and sprinkle over scallions for garnish.
