  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Tomato & Garlic Confit

  • 14 ounces cherry tomatoes
  • 1 bulb garlic
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
  • Flakey sea salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Brie

  • 9 ounce Brie
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes

For Serving

  • 1 baguette, sliced
  • Chopped fresh basil, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tomato & Garlic Confit: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the cherry tomatoes and whole bulb of garlic (with the top sliced off to expose the cloves) in a baking dish. Drizzle with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with flakey sea salt and black pepper, then toss gently to coat. Roast in the oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the tomatoes are blistered and the garlic cloves are soft and caramelized.
  2. Assemble the Brie: Remove the roasted garlic cloves from their skins and spread them evenly over the Brie. Add the roasted cherry tomatoes on top. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the tomato and garlic confit, then place the Brie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Bake the Brie: Return the Brie to the oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes, until the Brie is soft and melty inside.
  4. Add Honey and Chili Flakes: Remove the baked Brie from the oven and drizzle the honey over the top. Sprinkle with chili flakes for a touch of heat.
  5. Serve: Transfer the Brie to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped fresh basil and a light drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately with warm sliced baguette for spreading and dipping.

Notes

  • Be careful not to overbake the Brie to avoid it melting too much and oozing excessively.
  • Use fresh, ripe cherry tomatoes for the best flavor in the confit.
  • You can prepare the tomato and garlic confit in advance and refrigerate, then assemble and bake before serving.
  • For a milder heat, reduce or omit the chili flakes.
  • Serve immediately after baking to enjoy the Brie at its creamiest texture.
