A whole wheel of Brie baked to oozy perfection with a cranberry-apple spice mixture sounds too good to be true. Lucky for you, baked Brie with apples is real, and this recipe will make it happen.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter

1 small tart apple, peeled and sliced

1/3 cup dried cranberries

1/4 cup chopped pecans

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Dash ground nutmeg

1 round (8 ounces) Brie cheese

Assorted crackers

Instructions

1 Cook the apple mixture

2 Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apple, cranberries, pecans, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg and give everything a good stir. Cook and stir the mixture until the apples are tender, five to seven minutes.

3 Cut the Brie in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in a 9-inch pie plate.

4 Assemble the Brie with apples

5 Spoon half of the apple mixture on the Brie’s bottom half. Replace the Brie’s top, and spoon on the remaining apple mixture.

6 Bake the Brie

7 Bake, uncovered, until the cheese begins to melt, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve it warm with crackers.
