04 - Sprinkle the chopped walnuts on top of the preserves.

05 - Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the Brie is soft and melty but not fully collapsed.

01 -

It comes together in under 25 minutes but looks like you fussed for hours
The combination of warm creamy cheese sweet preserves and crunchy nuts hits every craving
It is forgiving enough to serve slightly melty or perfectly oozing depending on your crowd

02 -

Brie that has baked too long will separate and become greasy so pull it when it still has some structure
Serving this straight from the oven keeps it at the perfect consistency so have everything else ready first

03 -

If your Brie has a rind you dislike carefully slice off the top layer before adding the preserves
For a larger crowd use two smaller wheels instead of one large one so everyone gets access to the gooey center
