Today, I am going to share with you some ways to make your holidays stress-free, including a simple fruit and caramel brie recipe.
The holidays are just around the corner. It is the time of the year that is usually filled with parties, gatherings, and dinners – all of which usually include food.

If you happen to be the host of one of the many holiday get-togethers, you want to impress your guests but not be stressed.
First off, I have a simple appetizer. I wanted to get one that had Thanksgiving flair, but this really could work for anytime during the holidays.
I also wanted something that would be quick and easy to make but wanted it to be special too. This fruit and caramel brie would be a great way to start off your Thanksgiving meal.
Begin by removing the rind from the Brie and place the round in a microwave-safe serving bowl.
In another bowl, combine the caramel topping, cranberries, apples and walnuts. Then spread the caramel mixture over the Brie.
Microwave, uncovered, on high for 45-60 seconds or until cheese is heated through and slightly melted. Serve with toasted baguette slices or crackers.

Frequetnly Asked Questions
Do I have to remove the rind from the Brie cheese before baking?
It’s a matter of preference. Some people prefer to leave the rind on, as it becomes soft and edible when baked. For this recipe I chose to remove it.
What can I serve with Easy Fruit and Caramel Brie?
This dish is delicious with slices of baguette, crackers, or even celery and carrot sticks for a contrast in texture.
Can I make this recipe ahead of time and reheat it?
It’s best to serve Fruit and Caramel Brie immediately after baking for the best texture and flavor. Reheating may cause the Brie to become too runny.
Can I customize the toppings for this Brie dish?
Absolutely! You can customize the toppings by adding herbs like rosemary, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of sea salt for a unique flavor profile.
