Ingredients
- 1/2 cup roasted pecan pieces
- 1 (13.4-ounce) round brie
- 1 (12-ounce) bag fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- zest and juice of 1 orange
- 1 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme
- 1 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary
- 1 tablespoon bourbon, optional
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, saving a few for the final garnish, with the maple syrup and water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, and then reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries have popped and the mixture has thickened, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove the cranberry mixture from the heat and immediately stir in orange zest and juice, thyme, rosemary, and bourbon (if using).
- While the chutney cools, place the brie on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the inside of cheese has softened while the outside remains intact.
- Transfer the Brie to a serving platter and top with chutney and toasted pecans.
- Drizzle about 1 teaspoon maple syrup over the brie and garnish with fresh thyme and a few fresh cranberries.
- Serve immediately with crackers, toasted bread, and apple slices.
