Garlic Herb Baked Camembert

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Herb Baked Camembert.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While that warms up, carefully take the Camembert cheese out of its charming wooden box, discarding any plastic wrapping.

3. Step 3

   Place the cheese back into its box, ready for a delicious transformation.

4. Step 4

   With a sharp knife in hand, gently score the top of the cheese in a crisscross pattern, cutting about an inch deep.

5. Step 5

   If you’re feeling adventurous, you can remove the top rind for an even creamier experience.

6. Step 6

   Now, let’s add some flavor! Tuck thin slices of garlic into the scored sections of the cheese, allowing their aromatic essence to infuse every bite.

7. Step 7

   Sprinkle fresh rosemary and thyme leaves generously over the top, pushing some into the scores to really pack in that herbal goodness.

8. Step 8

   A drizzle of olive oil will add richness, so pour that over the cheese, then season it with a sprinkle of freshly cracked salt and pepper to taste.

9. Step 9

   To keep things tidy, wrap the wooden box in foil, leaving the top open to catch any drips, and place it on a baking sheet for easy handling.

10. Step 10

    Slide it into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 15 minutes, until it’s beautifully melted and fragrant.

11. Step 11

    Once it’s done, carefully remove it from the oven and peel off the foil.

12. Step 12

    Serve the warm, gooey cheese right in its box, and watch as everyone gathers around to enjoy this delightful treat!.
