3-Ingredient Brie Bakes
These little brie bakes are the kind of cozy dish my best friend always set out at gatherings on the farm—simple, shareable, and just indulgent enough. Each one hides a molten center of creamy brie under a savory, nutty crust that crackles when you break through with a spoon. No pastry, no fuss—just three pantry-friendly ingredients layered in a dish and baked until bubbly. It’s the sort of recipe that feels right at home in a Midwestern kitchen: unfussy, comforting, and perfect for evenings when friends drop by.

Low-Carb 3-Ingredient Brie Bakes
Ingredients (Serves 4)
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Small wheels of brie (about 4 oz each) | 4 |
| Roasted mixed nuts (almonds, pecans, or walnuts), chopped | ½ cup |
| Olive oil | 1 tbsp (plus extra for greasing) |
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a small casserole or baking dish with olive oil.
- Place brie wheels in the dish, spaced slightly apart. Score tops lightly in a crisscross pattern.
- Toss chopped nuts with olive oil until coated. Spoon over brie, pressing gently so they cling.
- Bake 12–15 minutes, until cheese is puffed and oozing at the edges and nuts are golden.
- Rest 3–5 minutes before serving to let the crust set.
- Serve warm, encouraging guests to break through the nutty crust for the gooey center.
