Notes
Recipe FAQs:
Should I cut the rind off the brie? No, you do not need to remove the rind before baking the brie. It is edible and barely noticeable after it’s baked in these bites. If you prefer to cut the rind off, you CAN, but it wastes a lot of cheeseCan I use something else in place of cranberry sauce? Yes, in place of the cranberry sauce, you can try a variety of jams (we love apricot or a spicy pepper jelly!) or even something savory, like pesto sauce.How can I prep these ahead of time? You can fully prepare these and pop them in the refrigerator for several hours. Then just bake as directed.Can these be frozen? You can freeze these after baking. Then just reheat in your oven straight from the freezer to crisp them up. Add rosemary AFTER baking.
