Honey Nut Brie Appetizer
Make this simple and delicious Honey Nut Brie Appetizer for your next party! You can have it prepared and on the appetizer table in about 15 minutes!
When ever I go to a party and I see a Brie on the table I do a little happy dance inside. I cannot resist Brie cheese. It’s so creamy and delicious and pairs so well with everything. Left to my own devices I could literally eat an entire wheel by myself. I would regret it on many levels, but oh my, can you just imagine?
Brie goes with everything. But I wonder, does anything pair with Brie cheese better than something sweet? I don’t think so. Every time I make a baked Brie I seem to add some kind of sweet jam or compote because the sweetness just goes so well with the creaminess of the cheese.
Then I thought what about something simple like honey and nuts? I’m all about keeping things simple, especially around the holidays. If I can whip up something delicious that I know my guests will enjoy, and be able to do it in minutes, I’m sold. Enter, the Honey Nut Brie Appetizer. A deliciously sweet and creamy honey sauce with crunchy delicious pecans, served over a creamy Brie cheese wheel. So delicious. You can serve the Brie at room temperature, or bake it (which is best), and serve it up with your favourite dippers.
This Honey Nut Brie takes about 15 minutes total to make. Serve it with apple slices, fresh grapes, slices of baguette and crackers. So decadent and delicious!
