The easiest appetizer you’ll ever make, this warm baked brie with honey and sliced almonds is a crowd favorite and takes just minutes to prepare.
You know how everyone has a handful of fool proof, go-to recipes that they keep going back to again and again? This is one of mine. In fact, if you’ve ever attended a holiday party at my house, there’s a strong chance you’ve enjoyed this warm and addictive Baked Brie with Honey and Sliced Almonds.
Today we are celebrating my dear friend Joanne’s SURPRISE Virtual Bridal Shower. Since I can’t imagine a celebration that doesn’t include this ooey, gooey baked brie, I knew right away I was going to share this dish when my beautiful friend Audra invited me to participate.
Lucky for me, I had the opportunity to meet BOTH girls in person for the first time this past summer when I was visiting NYC. From Left to Right: Me, Audra, Lauren, Ashley and Joanne.
As the perfect appetizer for any season, I urge all of you to add this ridiculously easy baked brie with honey and sliced almonds to your party menus! You can prep it in the morning and pop it in the oven right as guests arrive. Of course, you can also serve it for dinner and call it #MeatlessMonday. The choice is yours.
No forks required.

I made the baked brie with sliced almonds as a Thanksgiving appetizer and it was a huge hit with adults and children alike. As a novice cook, it was so easy to prepare. This recipe will be a staple in my (limited) cooking repertoire. And I will certainly make it a Thanksgiving tradition going forward
I am so happy you enjoyed it!!! It is one of my go-to appetizers every holiday season!!
Yum! This looks so delicious! I love the idea of baked brie and am always looking for easy appetizer ideas. Love your site layout by the way- looks great!
Thank you so much Alex!! Appreciate it!
This says “Serves 16” but seriously, as an appetizer, how many people would you serve one wedge of brie? Since I have never made this before, i really have no idea! I’d love to make it for Thanksgiving.
It obviously depends on the size of your brie wedge but really it’s up to you! Technically, a serving of cheese is one ounce but if you are serving appetizers at dinner time I would plan on people enjoying more than a serving. Hope that helps!
My first baby is due in two weeks… Brie and a glass of red are within sight…!
Oh wow congratulations!!!! My youngest turns one on Friday. November babies are the best!
I absolutely love that this baked brie is laced with honey. Such a great snack for people to nibble on while they wait for the big Thanksgiving meal! I might have to try this with my family for Christmas in England, too!
Please let me know if you try it!!
If you really insist, then okay I’ll will bake this up right away!
Please do. :)

I wasn’t sure what I was going to make for dinner tonight, but now I do! Good thing I have a wedge of brie in the fridge. I mean, all that protein in the cheese must be good for post-workout eats, right?! Thanks so much love!!! <3<3<3
Don’t forget – almonds add more protein!!! hahaha Happy Bridal Shower!!!
I can see why this is a go-to recipe. Who doesn’t love a warm cheesy dish?!
Honestly!! AND BREAD.

I have to admit, you had me at “crowd favorite” and “minute to make.” Those two things don’t usually go together! But you are right. Who doesn’t love baked brie? Fantastic recipe.
I swear I make it for almost every party and it’s always devoured!
Ooooh this could be dangerous! I LOVE baked brie, and it always reminds me of christmas, so I should make it soon, especially as I will not be going home this year, will have to bring christmas spirit to me :)
I would love if you added this to our meatless monday linkup, it would be a great addition, and others would enjoy seeing it :)
