Sweet & Salty Baked Camembert with Crispy Baguette

Time: 45 mins
Servings: 8-10
Difficulty: Medium

Ingredients

• 1 Brumby’s White Baguette

• 2 camembert wheels

• Fresh blueberries

• Fresh raspberries

• 2 twigs of thyme

• ½ cup flaked almonds

• 1 tbsp honey

• 2 tbsp butter

• 2 tsp caster sugar

• Salt salt

• 2 oven-proof ramekins

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees C.

2. Gently remove both tops (white skin only) from the camembert wheels with a sharp knife.

3. Arrange the blueberries, raspberries and one twig of thyme (leaves only) around the top of one of the wheels and leave the second wheel empty.

4. Place both wheels into ramekins and bake in oven for 15 minutes.

5. Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a pan over medium heat, then add flaked almonds and cook until lightly browned. Gently move them around the pan to avoid burning.

6. Once the almonds are browned, set aside, and slice the White Baguette (slice up approx. ½ of the baguette).

7. Add 1 tbsp of butter to the same pan the almonds were cooked in and start toasting half of the baguette on both sides. Add more butter to the pan if needed.

8. Once finished baking, remove the ramekins from the oven. Lightly dust the berry-topped wheel with caster sugar. Drizzle with honey and garnish with thyme.

9. Top the second wheel of camembert with the buttery flaked almonds, sea salt and garnish with thyme.

10. Once half the baguette is toasted, lay on a serving platter or cheese board and dust it with caster sugar. Place the berry honey-baked camembert next to it, then layer the fresh baguette next to the almond-baked camembert.

11. Sprinkle fresh blueberries and raspberries around the platter (optional).

Serve straight away so the camembert is warm and gooey. This dish is perfect for entertaining and it’s a sure crowd pleaser!
