Ingredients

  • 500gbread dough
  • 100gsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp rosemary leaves, diced
  • 150gbrie
  • 3 tbspcranberry sauce

It's got brie, it's got cranberry sauce, it's got butter and rosemary drenched dough balls - basically, it's got it all. You can even use shop bought pizza dough if you want to make the whole thing even easier.

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Divide the dough into roughly 60g balls and roll them on a clean surface to create surface tension and make them nice and round.
  • Melt the butter and stir through the rosemary, then toss through the balls of dough to coat them in the rosemary butter.
  • Place them in a small loaf tin, adding chunks of brie and cranberry sauce to nestle between the dough balls. Let them rise somewhere warm for half an hour.
  • Brush with more rosemary butter and bake until the dough has risen and the cheese has melted.
  • What do you think of the recipe?
