Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
Step
15 mins
In a small bowl, rehydrate the dried cranberries by covering them with boiling water. Allow them to plump for 15 minutes, then drain thoroughly. (17 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
While the cranberries are soaking, delicately slice off the top rind of the Brie wheel. Transfer the Brie to a pie plate or oven-safe dish. (3 minutes)
04
Step
15 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the Brie is delightfully warm and softened throughout, approximately 15 minutes. (15 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Remove from the oven and generously top with orange marmalade, the plumped cranberries, toasted walnuts, and a scattering of fresh mint. Serve immediately and enjoy! (5 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup over the baked Brie before serving.
Experiment with different types of nuts, such as pecans or almonds, for a unique twist.
If you prefer a less intense orange flavor, use orange zest instead of marmalade.
Ensure the Brie is not overbaked, as it can become too runny. It should be soft and gooey, but still hold its shape.
Serve with a variety of accompaniments, such as baguette slices, fruit preserves, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Jun 28, 2025Make sure to drain the cranberries really well, otherwise the Brie can get a bit soggy.
