Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 (16-ounce) wheel of brie cheese
  • 2 ounces Go Honey raw honeycomb, broken into pieces
  • 5 tablespoons Go Honey pure honey, divided
  • 1 fresh rosemary sprig, trimmed into 1-inch pieces
  • Sea salt flakes

For the Candied Pecans

  • 1 cup pecan halves
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar

For Serving

  • Crostini, crackers, or crusty bread

Instructions

1

Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 375°F. For softer, more melted brie, use 350°F instead.

2

Bake the Brie

Place the brie wheel into a small cast-iron skillet or shallow baking dish. Bake until warm and gooey throughout, approximately 10-12 minutes.

3

Make Candied Pecans

While the brie bakes, melt butter in a small pan over medium-low heat. Add pecans, brown sugar, and 3 tablespoons of honey. Stir to combine.

4

Simmer Until Coated

Let the pecan mixture simmer over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, the mixture thickens, and the pecans are evenly coated—about 4-5 minutes.

5

Top with Pecans

Remove the brie from the oven and immediately spoon the warm candied pecan mixture over the top.

6

Add Honeycomb

Arrange raw honeycomb pieces on top of the pecans. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of honey.

7

Garnish and Serve

Scatter rosemary pieces across the top and finish with a generous sprinkle of sea salt flakes. Serve immediately with crostini, crackers, or sliced crusty bread.

Pro Tip: Add the honeycomb after baking so it stays intact and doesn't fully melt. The residual heat from the brie will soften it just enough to make it spreadable. The honeycomb wax is completely edible—encourage guests to scoop the warm brie along with chunks of honeycomb for the full experience.
