Almond Brie
Grill: 8 mins
Ingredients
- 8 ounces round Brie cheese with rind (about 4 inches in diameter)
- 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds, coarsely chopped hazelnuts (filberts) or pecans, toasted
- 1 yellow apple or ripe pear, cored and sliced into thin wedges, or 1/2 cup sliced strawberries and 1 kiwifruit, peeled and sliced lengthwise into wedges
- French bread slices, assorted crackers and/or melba toast (optional)
Directions
1. Cut off a thin slice from the top of the Brie to remove the rind; discard. Place round of Brie in a 6-inch cast-iron skillet or disposable foil pan. Spread top of Brie with orange marmalade, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
2. Place skillet or pan on the grill rack. Grill directly over low coals. Cover and grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until Brie is softened and warmed. Place the almonds, hazelnuts or pecans around the border.
3. Serve with fruit, French bread, assorted crackers and/or melba toast, if you like.
