Ingredients

Qty Item
250 g Whole Camembert Wheel
2 cloves Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Honey or maple syrup
1 pinch Cracked black pepper
1 loaf Baguette, sliced

How to Make Baked Camembert Dip with Garlic and Rosemary

1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

2

Remove the Camembert from its packaging. If it came in a wooden box, remove any plastic wrap and place the cheese back into the wooden base. If not, place it in a small oven-safe ramekin that fits the wheel snugly.

3

Using a sharp knife, score the top rind of the cheese in a crosshatch or diamond pattern, about 1cm deep.

4

Poke the thin slices of garlic and small tufts of fresh rosemary into the slits you created.

5

Drizzle the top of the cheese with olive oil and honey, then season with a generous crack of black pepper.

6

Place the cheese on a baking tray and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the center is completely melted and the top is slightly golden.

7

Serve immediately while hot with toasted baguette slices, crackers, or vegetable batons.


Tips for Best Results

  • ·

    If the wooden box is stapled together rather than glued, it is safe for the oven; otherwise, use a ceramic baker.

  • ·

    For a festive twist, add a spoonful of cranberry sauce or fig jam on top after baking.

  • ·

    Ensure the cheese is at room temperature before baking for the most even melt.

  • ·

    If you want extra crunch, toast your baguette slices on the same tray during the last 5 minutes of baking.


Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Brie instead of Camembert?
Yes, Brie works perfectly as a substitute. It is slightly milder and creamier but melts just as beautifully.
How do I know when the Camembert is done?
The cheese should feel very soft and liquid when gently pressed in the center, and the rind may begin to puff up slightly.
Can I make this in an air fryer?
Absolutely! Air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 8-10 minutes until the center is molten.
Can I reheat leftover baked camembert?
It is best served fresh. While you can reheat it in the microwave or oven, the texture may become slightly rubbery once it has cooled and set a second time.
