Pull-Apart Sourdough Brie and Cranberry Bread


  • Author: Chef Lolytta

Description

A stunning and delicious pull-apart bread made with sourdough, filled with creamy brie cheese and sweet-tart cranberry sauce, perfect for sharing.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 large round sourdough loaf (about 1 lb)
  • 8 oz brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
  • 1 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the sourdough loaf into a 1-inch crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom crust.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and herbs. Gently pry open the cuts in the bread and brush the butter mixture generously into all the crevices.
  4. Stuff the cubed brie and dollops of cranberry sauce into the cuts throughout the loaf.
  5. Wrap the entire loaf loosely in foil, place it on the prepared baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes. Unwrap the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and the top is crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then serve warm for pulling apart.
