Ingredients
- 1 wheel of Brie cheese
- 1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- Crackers, apple slices, or bread for serving
Directions
- Remove the Brie from its packaging.
- Leave the rind on; it will help keep the cheese together as it melts.
- Create the Topping:
- In a small bowl, mix the chopped pecans, brown sugar, honey, and optionally, rosemary and cinnamon. Stir until well combined.
- Assemble the Brie:
- Place the Brie on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap the cheese completely.
- Spoon the pecan mixture on top of the Brie, spreading it evenly.
- Wrap the Brie:
- Fold the aluminum foil around the Brie to create a sealed packet. Make sure it's tightly wrapped to prevent any cheese from leaking out as it melts.
- Cook Over the Campfire:
- Place the wrapped Brie on a grill grate over the campfire. If you're careful, you can also place it on a rock or directly on the coals.
- Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even heating. The Brie is ready when it's soft to the touch, and the toppings are melted and gooey.
- Serve:
- Carefully unwrap the foil (it will be hot!).
- Transfer the baked Brie to a serving dish.
- Serve with crackers, apple slices, or bread for dipping.
