Warm Brie with Honeyed Fruit Compote makes a beautiful, quick and easy appetizer. Made with a honeyed cranberry walnut fruit compote, this bakedbrie recipe is festive for the holidays!
This bakedbrie recipe makes one of my go-to appetizer recipes and one that I am so excitedto share with you all from the upcoming Add a Pinch cookbook. The warm oozy brie topped with the sweet, yet tart honeyed compote is always a crowd favorite and perfect for serving throughout the holidays!
It is one of the easiest and most versatile appetizers to make, too!
This bakedbrie appetizer uses just a handful of ingredients that I keep stocked in my refrigerator and pantry this time of year, making it perfect to put together when guests drop by throughout the holidays. Since it only takes about 15 minutes to make, it is no wonder that I turn to it time and time again for easy entertaining! I think you will, too.
But, let’s talk about the versatility for just a minute.In the book, I provide the perfect version of this recipe for spring and summer using berries along with this cranberry walnut version for the holidays. But you know what? You can easily adapt this recipe to include your favorite in-season fruits like peaches, figs, plums, and more! How greatis that?
To make my Warm Brie with Honeyed Fruit Compote, I bake my brie until it is melty and oozy (don’t you love those words!), about 12 to 15 minutes. While the brie is warming, I make my compote by simmering fresh orange juice until it has reduced and then add my cranberries and orange zest and cook until the compote has thickened, about 5 minutes. I then top the warm brie with my fruit compote, walnuts and then drizzle the honey over top.
I love to serve it with fresh apple and pear slices, crackers, or even toasted baguette slices.
I hope you love this recipe as much as we do.

Ingredients
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice
