Baked Brie with Cranberry Sauce Recipe

Baked Brie Cranberry Sauce recipe is an easy and elegant appetizer to serve during the holidays! Add chopped Maple Pecan Nuts for some delicious texture and serve with a variety of crackers!

I love this time of year when there are plenty of fresh cranberries to enjoy! Those tart berries sure are delicious when you add them to different dishes, and it’s such a fun dish to watch transpire into a sauce. I especially like the sound of the berries popping as they begin to cook and release thier juices.

I have an easy recipe that I follow every year; Ruby Red Cranberry Sauce, but this year I did mix it up a little. I used maple syrup instead of sugar. Same delicious sauce, but without the refined sugar. I’m saving the sugar for cookie recipes. Makes perfect sense, right? 😉

Cranberry sauce topped on some brie cheese is a delicious combination. The two makes a super quick and elegant appetizer and gets eaten pretty quick.

Cut a small hole in the center of the brie scooping out a portion to make room for the cranberry sauce.  Put this in the oven just until the cheese begins to get nice and gooey!

I served this with crackers, but sliced green apples would be delicious too!
