What other toppings work well for brie?
Try raspberries and maple syrup for a sweet variation or caramelized onions for something more a more savory pallet.
What to serve Brie with?
I served this with crusty bread (like Italian or Baguette Slices); I’d go that route if you want to dip into it, otherwise, using a knife with crackers would be good, too.
Brie can also be served with fresh fruit like pear slices or apple slices if you want to give a non-bread option for Holiday Parties.
