Crockpot Brie with apricot topping

By classycook

Ingredients

• 1 large round or wedge of brie (the round I used was 13.2 oz) Allouette
• 1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
• 2 T brown sugar
• 2 T water
• 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 tsp dried rosemary
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

Step 1

I used a 1.5 mini round crockpot. If you are going to use a big one, put the brie in an oven-safe dish. As long as the dish and the crockpot heat together, you're all good. Canu use 1/3 c. candied pecans, 1/4 c. dried cranberries

If your brie has a really hard rind, cut the top part off. This was the first time I had used this brand of brie---I've always reached for the stuff from Trader Joe's---and I was alarmed at how thick the rind was.

Put the brie into the crockpot.

In a bowl, mix the chopped apricots, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, water and rosemary together. Spoon on top of the brie.
Sprinkle on the chopped walnuts.

Cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours, or on low for about 3. Check after an hour in both cases just in case.

Serve with your favorite crackers or apple slices.

The Verdict.

I eventually shared with Adam. We had it as dinner.

The flavor is so amazing, and the brie got so gooey and amazing. I think I just drooled a bit.
