Skill: intermediate
Servings: 1

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (8 ounce) wheel of Brie
  • ¼ cup honey + more for serving
  • 8 fresh or dried mission figs, halved
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Unwrap the brie and place it in a baking dish. Cut the brie on top in a crosshatch pattern. Drizzle the brie with the honey and rub the honey into the brie. Add the figs to the top of the brie. Sprinkle with pepper. Take a sprig of thyme, strip away the leaves and sprinkle over the brie and figs. Drizzle the brie lightly with olive oil.
  3. Loosely cover the brie with foil, bake for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes or until the top of the brie is golden.
  4. Meanwhile, melt the butter in medium skillet over medium heat. Add the pumpkin seeds and cook, stirring often until lightly golden and toasted, about 5 minutes. Remove the seeds from the skillet and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  5. Serve the brie warm, topped with the pumpkin seeds.
