Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 round round of sourdough bread store-bought or homemade
  • 8 oz brie cheese, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup cranberry sauce homemade or store-bought
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped optional, for flavor
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for some heat

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Slice your round loaf of sourdough with a serrated knife, making cuts about 1 inch apart, stopping just before you reach the bottom crust.
  3. Gently pull apart the slices and stuff each opening with pieces of brie cheese and a dollop of cranberry sauce.
  4. Drizzle the melted butter over the top, ensuring it seeps into the slices. Sprinkle with rosemary, salt, and pepper. If desired, add red pepper flakes.
  5. Wrap the loaded sourdough in aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to achieve a crispy top.
  6. Once golden and melty, let it cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Notes

Experiment with mix-ins like chopped apples or pears. This recipe works well with slightly stale sourdough. Don’t stress about messiness, the dish is meant to be enjoyed casually.
