This is an extremely easy, impressive appetizer. It is a pampered chef recipe that my friend and I tweaked until we got it just right. You can adjust the heat to your liking. (I prefer the heat, so I use 3 jalapeños.) You can also double this and use a larger sized Brie to accommodate a bigger crowd. Ingredients:
1/4 cup pecan halves, chopped |
1 -3 jalapeno pepper, seeded & chopped |
1/4 cup apricot preserves |
1 -3 garlic clove, chopped |
1 (4 inch) brie cheese, 4-inch round-room temp |
1 french baguette, sliced |
vegetable oil |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. In small bowl combine peppers, apricot preserves & garlic.
3. Cut the brie in half horizontally.
4. Place one half of brie cut side up onto center of a large round stone.
5. Spread half the apricot mixture on top.
6. Top w/ half the pecans.
7. Place remaining brie on top (cut side up).
8. Spread remaining apricot mixture on top & top off w/ remaining pecans.
9. Arrange the baguette slices around the brie.
10. spray/brush w/ vegetable oil.
11. Bake 8-10 minutes or until baguette slices are golden brown & Brie begins to soften.
12. Removed from oven; let stand 5 minutes before serving.
13. YUMMY.
