Ingredients

  • 7 ounce brie cheese wedge at room temperature
  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • ¼ cup pecans roughly chopped
  • pinch kosher salt
  • ¼ cup blueberries
  • 2 Tablespoons golden raisins
  • 2 Tablespoons pomegranate seeds
  • 2 Tablespoons honey
  • crackers for serving

Instructions

  • Place the brie on a serving platter (remove it from the fridge an hour before serving, wrapped, so it can come to room temperature).
  • Over medium heat, melt butter in a skillet and add the pecans to toast for about 2 minutes, tossing until fragrant, add a pinch of salt. Don't walk away, nuts can burn quickly! Let cool slightly.
  • Combine blueberries, raisins, pomegranate seeds, and cooled nuts with the honey in a small bowl and toss with a spoon. Add topping to the brie and drizzle with a bit more honey just before serving to hold it all together.
  • Serve with crackers and a small knife for scooping and spreading.

Notes

  • Serve brie cheese at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make Ahead Instructions - You can make this appetizer anytime the day you will be serving it and store it in the fridge.  Place your brie wedge on a serving dish. Toast the nuts and let them cool, then combine the topping in a small bowl. Pile the brie with the topping, then cover and refrigerate. Pull it out to sit on the counter an hour before serving to let it come to room temperature, keep covered.  Drizzle with a bit more honey just before serving.
