Baked Brie Bread with Spicy Strawberry Jam

Baked brie in bread is very simple to prepare, but it is sure to delight your guests and their taste buds. In general, just cheese, bread and spices will be enough to make it tasty. But I wanted to go a step further and make a spicy strawberry jam. Its sweetness pairs perfectly with the saltiness of the cheese, and the spiciness makes the taste even more interesting and unforgettable.

⏱ Cooking time — 40 minutes overall. Includes 15 minutes of preparation and cooking + 25 minutes unattended.

🥣 Ingredients

🍽 For 4 servings:

• 250 g brie (round shape)
• Loaf of bread (round shape, 1-2 cm more in diameter than the brie)
• pinch of thyme
• pinch of oregano
• extra-virgin olive oil
• 150g of spicy strawberry jam

 🔪Step by step directions

Prepare a spicy strawberry jam using this recipe (takes about 25 minutes, once the strawberries are in the saucepan on the stove – you can start making brie in parallel).

Preheat the oven to 200 ° C / 400 ° F top+down mode, no convection (no fan).

Cut the top off the bread.

Place the brie on top and cut deep into the bread with a knife, all the way around the diameter of the cheese, but without cutting through the bread crust at the bottom.

Take out the bread crumbs, brush the brie spot with olive oil.

Now, if the jam is already ready – smear the jam (preferably let it cool a bit).

Cut the top off the brie and insert it into the bread loaf.

Make side cuts all around the diameter of the bread, about 2 cm wide, so that you can easily break off these slices and dip them into the cheese. Smear a little more strawberry jam on top of the cheese and cover with the sliced top.

Cut the cut out crumbs into cubes about 2 x 2 cm. I additionally cut one slice of bread to be sure that the breadcrumbs will not run out at the most inopportune moment. Put it all on a baking tray and put it in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.

Take out of the oven, sprinkle everything with a pinch of oregano and thyme, and serve immediately with the rest of the strawberry jam. Break off a piece of toasted bread, dip it into the melted brie, and enjoy.
