Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Brie with Sweet Orange and Cranberry Topping.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for a delicious treat.
Step 2
While the oven warms up, take a small bowl and soak your dried cranberries in boiling water for about 15 minutes.
Step 3
This little step will plump them up beautifully, adding a burst of flavor to your dish.
Step 4
Once they’re nice and juicy, drain the cranberries and set them aside for later.
Step 5
Now, let’s give that Brie cheese some love! Carefully slice off the top rind of the Brie wheel and place it in a pie plate, ready to transform into a gooey delight.
Step 6
Pop the Brie into your preheated oven and let it bake for around 15 minutes, or until it’s warmed through and irresistibly soft.
Step 7
The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! When the Brie is perfectly baked, take it out of the oven and generously top it with a luscious layer of orange marmalade, followed by the plumped cranberries and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for that delightful crunch.
Step 8
If you’re feeling fancy, add a touch of fresh mint on top for a burst of color and flavor.
Step 9
Serve it warm and watch as everyone gathers around to enjoy this delightful, creamy indulgence!.
