🧀 Baked Brie Bread Bowl with a Cranberry and Thyme Infusion 🧀

Dive into the gooey goodness of melted Brie, encased in a crusty bread bowl, enhanced with the tart sweetness of cranberries and the earthy aroma of thyme. Perfect for a cozy gathering or a special family treat!

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 round loaf of bread
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 wheel of Brie cheese

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). 
2. Take the round loaf of bread and cut off the top. Hollow out the center large enough to snugly fit the wheel of Brie.
3. Place the Brie inside the hollowed-out bread and sprinkle the dried cranberries and fresh thyme leaves over the cheese.
4. Generously drizzle honey over the cranberries and Brie for a touch of sweetness.
5. Lightly brush the outside of the bread with olive oil to achieve a golden, crispy crust.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the Brie is deliciously melted.
7. Serve the bread bowl warm, encouraging guests to tear pieces of the crusty bread and dip into the molten Brie.
