Garlic and herb brie pull-apart bread is the kind of appetizer that disappears fast. A crusty round bread bowl is sliced into bite-sized pieces, stuffed with melty brie, and brushed with garlic herb butter, then baked until everything is warm, gooey, and ready to pull apart.

It’s perfect for sharing and makes a great centerpiece for a casual gathering or holiday spread. You get crispy edges, soft bread, and pockets of melted cheese in every bite. If you want something that feels a little special but is still easy to make, this is a solid choice.

Helpful Tips

Use a sturdy round loaf like sourdough so it holds its shape when you cut and fill it.
Cut deep but not all the way through to create pull-apart sections without the bread falling apart.
Distribute the brie evenly so you get cheesy bites throughout, not just in one spot.

Ingredients

1 large round bread loaf
8 ounces double creme brie cheese
¼ cup salted butter
4-5 cloves garlic chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
¼ teaspoon EACH salt and pepper or to taste
2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the bread vertically and horizontally being careful to not cut all the way through the bread. Place it on the baking sheet.
Cut the brie into cubes. Press the cubes, spread out, into the cuts in the bread.
Melt the butter with the chopped garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the garlic is sizzling.
Pour the melted butter over the top of the bread, making sure the butter gets into all the slits in the bread.
Wrap the bread in aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 more minutes.
To get a crunchy top, turn on the broiler and broil for 2 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly.
Remove from oven, sprinkle parsley on top. Serve.
