Ingredients

• Olive oil – When it comes to using oils in recipes, not all oil is the same. For this dish, you will want to stick to Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which should not be substituted with other oils. 
• Brie cheese – A wheel of brie cheese is usually found in a cooling compartment near specialty cheeses. 
• Pistachios – Shelled (whole or crushed) pistachios bring a salty crunch. To vary this nut, see the alternative suggestions.

• Honey: There are so many types of honey, and I love using flower honey for an even sweeter taste.
• seasonings – fresh OR dried thyme, red pepper flakes, optional
• crusty bread or crackers for serving

How to make Baked Brie

1. Preheat oven to 350 and drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into the bottom of a pan or baking dish.
2. Place the brie wheel into the pan and score the top with a knife.
3. Top with pistachio nuts, a drizzle of honey, thyme, and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. 
4. Bake for 7-10 minutes or until oozing but not melty cheese isn’t flat.
5. Transfer Brie from the oven and sprinkle with red pepper flakes before serving warm with crusty bread or crackers. This simple appetizer with melted brie and pistachios will surely be the best crowd-pleaser.
