Camembert Roasted with Honey and Thyme 🧀🍯🌿 A creamy, golden wheel of cheese roasted to perfection and topped with sweet honey and aromatic thyme—this appetizer is simplicity at its most indulgent. When you need something that feels fancy but takes barely any effort, Camembert Roasted with Honey and Thyme is your answer. This warm, gooey wheel of cheese is baked until molten inside, then drizzled with golden honey, olive oil, and fresh herbs for a combination that’s sweet, savory, and totally irresistible. Why I Love This Recipe This dish feels like a luxury restaurant appetizer, but it comes together in minutes with just a handful of ingredients. It’s the kind of starter that disappears quickly—especially when served with warm crusty bread or crisp crackers. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or planning a cozy night in, it pairs perfectly with baked brie appetizers, beer cheese dip, or even cheese-stuffed chicken wontons for a full cheese-lovers spread. Ingredients Instructions 1️⃣ Preheat the Oven Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). 2️⃣ Prep the Cheese Place the Camembert wheel in an oven-safe baking dish or on a small parchment-lined baking sheet.Use a sharp knife to score the top of the cheese in a crisscross pattern. This allows the flavors to seep in and helps the cheese melt evenly. 3️⃣ Add Flavor Drizzle honey generously over the scored top.Sprinkle the thyme leaves evenly and drizzle with olive oil. Add a touch of black pepper, if desired, for balance. 4️⃣ Bake Bake uncovered for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and gooey inside. You’ll know it’s ready when the top looks puffed and golden, and the cheese jiggles when gently shaken. 5️⃣ Serve Serve warm, directly from the baking dish, with plenty of crusty bread, toasted baguette slices, or crackers for scooping. Optional: Garnish with more fresh thyme.
