Step 5 – Toss the pecans and honey in a small bowl until the pecans are coated with the honey. 

Step 6 – Place the pecans on top of the jelly.

Expert Tips

• Type of Brie – You can use any type of brie cheese even the budget friendly ones that you can get at your local grocery taste delicious.
• Baking Brie – Make sure to not overbake brie as it can turn hard quickly of baked to long. Once you see a little melty cheese, you will know that the brie is ready to serve.
• Rest Brie – Allow the brie to rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the cheese to cool for just a bit to allow you to easily dip into it.
