Ingredients
- 1 (8–12 oz) Wheel of Brie (Double cream works best)
- 2–3 tbsp Old Town Spice Shop Hot Honey (Choose your heat: Jalapeño, Habanero, Ghost Pepper, or Carolina Reaper)
- 1 tsp Old Town Spice Shop Italian Seasoning
- ½ tsp Old Town Spice Shop Sea Salt (or Smoked Salt for extra depth)
- ¼ tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- Optional: Crushed walnuts or pecans for crunch
- 3 Tbsp. Favorite Fruit Preserves
Directions
Step 1
Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Prepare the Brie: Place the Brie wheel on a parchment-lined baking sheet or in a small oven-safe skillet/baking dish.
Step 3
Tip: Leave the rind on and gently score the top in a crosshatch pattern about ¼ inch deep to let the honey and spices soak in.
Step 4
Season: Evenly sprinkle the Italian Seasoning, Sea Salt, and Black Pepper directly onto the top of the Brie.
Step 5
The Honey Drizzle: Drizzle about half of your chosen Hot Honey over the seasoned top. If you’re adding nuts, sprinkle them on now so they toast in the oven.
Step 6
Bake: Place in the oven for 12–15 minutes. You want the cheese to be soft and bulging, but not completely burst and running across the pan.
Step 7
The Finish: Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle the remaining Hot Honey over the top for a fresh, glossy look and a bold spicy punch. Add the preserves on top.
Step 8
Serve: Let it sit for 2–3 minutes (it stays hot for a long time!). Serve with toasted baguette slices, sourdough, or simple sea salt crackers.
