  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp hot water
  • 1/2 cup dried cherries
  • 1/3 cup pistachios , chopped
  • 200 g brie cheese wheel (8 oz)
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a small bowl, add balsamic vinegar and hot water to dried cherries. Set aside and allow to soak for 15 minutes.
  • While cherries are soaking, add honey and cinnamon to a small saucepan over medium heat. Mix together and allow to simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring the entire time. Turn off heat and set aside.

Drain balsamic soaked cherries and place on top of brie, then top with pistachios. Bake for 15 minutes or until brie has just started to ooze.
  • Transfer brie to a serving platter and drizzle with the cinnamon honey. Serve warm with crackers, crostini or baguette slices.
