8 ounce wheel of brie cheese 1/4 cup fig jam 1/4 cup walnuts or pecans chopped 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves optional crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh fruit for serving
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet or pan.
Unwrap the brie. Place it in the baking dish.
Score the top of the brie in a crisscross pattern. This helps the jam penetrate the cheese as it bakes.
Spread about 1/4 cup of fig jam over the top of the brie.
Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the jam.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and gooey when you touch it.
Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Top with additional nuts or herbs, if desired.
