For the Brie
  • 1 wheel (8 oz) Brie rind-on

Equipment

  • 1 skillet
  • 1 6-inch oven-safe baking dish

Method
 

Make the hot honey
  1. Warm the honey and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally; do not let it boil.
  2. Remove the hot honey from the heat.
Toast the walnuts
  1. Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant.
  2. Transfer the walnuts to a plate.
Bake and assemble
  1. Heat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Place the Brie rind-on in a 6-inch oven-safe baking dish.
  3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the center feels soft when gently pressed.
  4. Let the Brie rest for 5 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the Brie.

Notes

For the best texture, serve the Brie soon after baking. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days; freezing is not recommended. For a nut-free option, omit the walnuts.
