Ingredients

7 oz brie round (not a wedge)
½ baguette
⅔ cup cranberries (fresh or frozen, not dried)
⅓ cup blackberries
6 dried apricots sliced
½ cup almonds, walnuts or pecans roughly chopped (any combination)
2 Tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary minced, plus sprigs for garnish
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
3 grinds fresh black pepper
1 Tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F convection bake.
Place brie round in the center of a 9 inch round oven-safe dish. Surround the brie with slices of baguette. A quiche or a pie dish works great.
In a bowl, combine all other ingredients except the olive oil, mix well.
Pile the topping on the brie. Drizzle 1 Tablespoon of olive oil over the whole dish, mostly on the bread.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs and serve with a cheese knife. Wrap a kitchen towel around the base of the dish, it will be hot!

Notes

A round pie or quiche pan works well, something oven-safe that can hold the cheese and its dipping bread. Wrap it with a kitchen towel when it's hot from the oven, bake and serve in the same dish!
The fresh blackberries could be substituted with fresh raspberries or blueberries.
Use fresh or frozen cranberries, no need to thaw, rinsed well. Dried cranberries will not work for this dish.
