"Have always loved Brie, many the irresistible #recipe28785 on my appetizer platter over the years. Last Christmas daughter served Baked Brie for a real winner of an appetizer, since then it has become one of my favourite appetizers especially at holiday time. I bake mine in a ceramic dish in the micro wave which sees it done in two minutes. It can also be baked in the oven. Add your favourite sturdy crackers or crostini for scooping. Served on a platter or charcuterie board with grapes, pecans or walnuts makes for an appetizer that is both impressive and wows guests making for the perfect appetizer."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
If using the Mircowave as I do, place Brie topped with Fig Jam or Red Pepper Jelly in a microwave proof round dish a touch larger than the Brie or a plate, place in Microwave for about 2 minutes in 30 second increments making for an awesome appetizer in minutes.
Step 2
In Oven - place Brie topped with Fig jam or Red Pepper Jelly in a shallow round ovenproof dish slightly larger than the Brie baking in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 – 15 minutes, to assure it’s done can check by inserting a skewer or toothpick which should come out with melted cheese stuck to it.
Step 3
I like serving on a platter or charcuterie board with sturdy crackers or crostini along with red grapes, pecans or walnuts.
