Ingredients:

  • 2 whole heads of garlic
  • 20ml Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 sprig Fresh rosemary
  • 1g Flaky sea salt
  • 225g Triple Cream Brie wheel
  • 10ml Honey
  • 1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 French Baguette
  • 100g Sliced Granny Smith apples

Instructions:

  1. Heat the oven. Set your oven to 200°C.
  2. Slice off the top 1cm off the garlic heads to expose the cloves. Place them on a square of aluminum foil, drizzle with 10ml olive oil, add rosemary, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Seal the foil tightly and roast for 40-45 minutes until the cloves are golden and soft.
  4. Remove garlic from oven and lower the oven temperature to 180°C.
  5. Use a sharp paring knife to gently score a 1cm diamond pattern into the top rind of the Brie wheel, taking care not to cut through the sides or bottom.
  6. Place the Brie in a small oven-safe dish just slightly larger than the wheel itself. Drizzle with honey, and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the center feels liquid when pressed.
  8. Slice the baguette and place on a tray for the last 5 minutes of the cheese's bake time. Bake until golden and crackling.
  9. Serve immediately. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins onto a board alongside the warm cheese and apples.
