Ingredients

- 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F. If your Brie wheel comes in a wooden box, ensure it is oven-safe (some are not) or carefully transfer the Brie to a small oven-safe baking dish or cast-iron skillet that is just slightly larger than the cheese wheel.
⏱️ 5 min•🌡️ 375°F - 2
Carefully unwrap the Brie. Using a sharp knife, lightly score the top rind of the Brie in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through the cheese. This helps the heat penetrate and allows the jam to seep into the cheese.
⏱️ 2 min - 3
Spoon the fig jam evenly over the top of the scored Brie. If using, sprinkle the pecan halves over the jam and place the sprig of fresh thyme on top.
⏱️ 3 min - 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the cheese is visibly softened and gooey when gently pressed. The jam should be bubbling slightly around the edges.
⏱️ 18 min•🌡️ 375°F - 5
Carefully remove the baked Brie from the oven. If desired, lightly crack some fresh black pepper over the top. Serve immediately with crackers, sliced baguette, or apple slices for dipping.
