Cranberry, Thyme, and Pistachio Baked Camembert


  • Author: Alioui
  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

A delightful baked cheese dish with a blend of sweet cranberries, crunchy pistachios, and fresh thyme, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pistachios
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 wheel Camembert cheese (8 oz)
  • Crackers or baguette slices, for serving

Instructions

  1. Begin by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C). Proper preheating ensures that the cheese melts uniformly, resulting in an irresistible gooey center with a perfectly slight crust on the outside.
  2. Carefully unwrap the wheel of Camembert cheese and position it in a small baking dish or on a lined baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, gently score the top of the cheese in a crisscross pattern.
  3. Generously sprinkle the dried cranberries, chopped pistachios, and fresh thyme leaves over the scored cheese. Drizzle honey if desired.
  4. Place the prepared cheese in the oven and let it bake for 10-12 minutes, looking for a bubbly, soft texture.
  5. Once baked, remove from the oven, cool for a minute, and serve immediately with crackers or freshly baked baguette.

Notes

For best results, use high-quality Camembert cheese. This enhances the overall flavor outcome.
