Yields1 Serving

Sourdough Bread, 1 Loaf

Unsalted Butter, softened, 4tbsps

Pecans, coarsley chopped, 2/3 cup

Brown Sugar, 3 tbsps

Brie Cheese, 300g

Dried Cranberries, Chopped, 1 cup

Thyme, chopped finely, a few sprigs

Preheat oven at 170˚C.

Using a sharp knife, cut the bread diagonally in rows across the top, down to 1-inches above the base in depth. Be careful not to cut through to the base of the loaf. Holding the bread firmly and gently over the top, cut through in rows in the other direction to create diamond shaped wedges.

Mix half of the butter with chopped pecans, thyme and brown sugar in a bowl and set aside.

Insert remaining butter between each wedge, followed by brie and pecans butter.

Scatter cranberries into the bread and slightly push it in to avoid them from burning.

Transfer bread to a baking tray lined and bake for 15 minutes or until the brie has fully melted.

Serve immediately. NOTES: The bread can be stuffed a few hours ahead or the day before you plan to serve it. Just wrap in foil and place in fridge until are you ready to bake.
