Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 8 ounce wheel of brie
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon milk or water
- ⅓ cup crushed gingerbread cookies
- ½ cup cranberry sauce see Red Wine Cranberry Sauce recipe above or linked below in the notes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper or use small baking dish.
- In a small bowl, beat the 1 egg and 1 teaspoon milk together to make an egg wash. Place ⅓ cup crushed gingerbread cookies in a small dish.
- Using a pastry brush, brush brie all over with egg wash.
- Place the brie directly into the gingerbread crumbs and press lightly to coat completely.
- Place the brie onto the prepared baking sheet or dish and bake for about 15-18 minutes or until the crust has set and the brie begins to melt. Be careful not to overbake or the brie will collapse.
- Remove from oven and top with ½ cup cranberry sauce just before serving.
