Author Notes
Need a gooey, savory treat to get you through the cold winter months? Look no further, this baked camembert with balsamic-roasted grapes is the perfect blend of sweet, tangy, savory, and earthy. We start by topping the camembert with walnuts and a drizzle of honey, finishing it off with the juicy grapes after baking. Serve immediately with warm, crusty bread and let the flavors melt in your mouth. —Marissa Mullen
Ingredients
-
1
wheel of camembert (in wooden container)
-
1 cup
seedless red grapes
-
1 teaspoon
balsamic vinegar
-
1 teaspoon
extra-virgin olive oil
-
1/4 cup
toasted walnuts
-
1 teaspoon
honey
-
1 pinch
salt and pepper, plus more to taste
Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
-
In a small bowl, combine grapes, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Arrange grapes on a foil lined baking tray and bake for 17 to 20 minutes. The grapes should be juicy and slightly wilted.
-
Meanwhile, take the camembert out of its plastic packaging and place back in its wooden container. Slice a cross hatch pattern along the top rind, and sprinkle with walnuts and honey.
-
When the oven timer reaches 10 minutes, place the camembert on an oven-safe dish alongside the roasted grapes. Let both finish in the oven.
-
Once the timer goes off, take both items out of the oven and carefully transfer the camembert to a serving dish.
-
Top the cheese with the balsamic grapes and garnish with fresh thyme.
-
Serve immediately with sliced baguette and enjoy!
