Hey, hi! Happy Monday before the 4th of July!!
I’m just stopping in for a super quick post today so I can share this last-minute brie recipe!
I needed to make sure all you procrastinators (mom), had the perfect, and most delicious appetizer. Honestly, is there anything better than melty brie, with sweet fruit, honey, and bread? It’s probably one of my favorite foods. I normally make brie around the holidays, but every once in a while I’ll make some during the summer as well. The first time I did so, I made this grilled brie with blackberry basil smash salsa, which to date is probably one of my favorite appetizer recipes on the site. It is SO good.
BUT, for as much as I love that brie recipe, it was time to create another new yummy summertime brie option. YESSS.
You guys know how much I love the combo of sweet and savory, so clearly this brie is totally my kind of recipe.
Let me break it down for you.
–> grilled brie…if you have yet to try grilling your brie, I highly recommend you do it…right this very minute. No joking, this minute. You need to experience the amazingness that is grilled brie. Just trust me.
–> thyme and honey…with a pinch of flaky sea salt, because sweet and salty is the best combo ever.
–> pan roasted cherries…with butter and bourbon…enough said.
Simply spoon the cherries over the brie, then drizzle it generously with thyme and honey, and serve it up with toasted bread. You could also use crackers, but I’m really just a melty cheese + bread kind of person.
So do you guys now see why you need this grilled brie in your life, like now. Or ok, maybe tomorrow for the 4th of July.
It’s the perfect, easy, last-minute appetizer that everyone will love.
Pro tip: if you’re serving more than two or three people I’d double the recipe. This is always the first thing to go at the appetizer table. Always.
OkOK. So now that I’ve convinced you to make this brie tomorrow, I’m headed out! By the time you read this I will hopefully have made it to Mexico. I will be there with my family until the 6th. Not sure what our plans are for the 4th, but one thing is for sure, there’ll be plenty of time in the sun, mucho fresh fruit eating, shoveling in of tacos, and if I can find it, yes, I will totally be making this brie. I know I’ll be in Mexico, but let’s be real, brie is good no matter where in the world you are! <– truth.
