Ingredients

1 16 oz brie wheel
1 cup pecan halves lightly toasted
½ cup dry cranberries
½ cup pumpkin seeds lightly toasted
1½ cups maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the brie on the prepared baking sheet and bake until soft, 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small pot, warm the pecans, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, and maple syrup over medium heat, mixing until warmed through and the maple syrup evenly coats everything.
Transfer the baked brie to a serving dish just large enough to hold it snugly without crowding and pour the maple syrup mixture overtop. Serve immediately while still hot alongside toasted baguette and a small spoon or knife for spreading.
