The perfect Brie cheese board
I love putting together a cheese platter for family and friends visiting. It’s especially a great thing to nibble on before the main meal for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

How to bake brie
- Preheat the oven and place parchment paper on a small baking sheet
- Place brie on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and let rest to firm up slightly.
- Use a spatula to carefully place brie onto a platter or preferred serving board.
Top tips for making this baked brie recipe
- Use a good quality brie for this recipe; it’s the star of the show! I tend to use a triple cream brie – it’s so amazingly creamy and is not much more expensive than the double cream brie.
- Place parchment on your baking sheet for easy removal. This is also a great tip just in case any cheese does ooze out of the baked brie recipe.
- Allow the baked brie to rest before transferring it to the cheese board. Allowing it to rest for 5 minutes gives the brie a chance to firm up slightly, so it’s actually easier to transfer.
Frequently asked questions
Brie takes around 15 to 20 minutes to bake in a preheated oven at 350ºF. When you cut into the cheese, it should come oozing out! It’s best to let the brie sit for 5 minutes before serving, so it isn’t scorching hot!
This baked brie recipe makes for a wonderful holiday appetizer just by itself, topped with a little honey, fresh thyme, walnuts, and pistachios. Delicious! I like to also serve it with a selection of crackers, cut fruits, and whole nuts. This brie can also be part of a larger cheeseboard with a selection of blue and hard cheeses.

To cut the baked brie, you can either cut across the top of the cheese and peel the rind back so people can dip into it, or you can cut a slice off of the side of the cheese and let it ooze out. Either way, it’s sure to delight whoever you are serving!
