Oozy, cheesy baked Camembert is a real treat – perfect for date night or a celebration – and it’s so easy to make, too.
My husband put this recipe together as a birthday treat for me. It was so delicious that I had to share it with you.
If you enjoy cheese fondue then forget about all of the hassle and just have this instead. It would be a perfect treat for a Valentine’s Day meal!
The meal came from my husband asking what I wanted for my birthday dinner. We hadn’t eaten in the house for three days, so thought it would be nice to stay in, and I naturally answered his question with “cheese”.
This was a wonderful, simple treat for a birthday meal – give it a go. This will serve 2.
Baked Camembert – The Ingredients
- Camembert, garlic, rosemary – these are the ingredients used for baking your Camembert. The simple addition of garlic and rosemary takes it up a notch.
- Crusty bread, carrots, celery sticks, green olives, cured meats – to serve. Enjoy dipping all of these into that melted Camembert! You could also try sliced bell pepper, bread sticks or crackers for dipping.
Top Tips
- Cooking the Camembert – You can cook the Camembert to the level of ‘ooziness’ that you prefer. Just check the consistency by prodding the centre with your finger.
- Get ahead – The Camembert needs to be cooked and served straight away, but you can prep the other ingredients up to 12 hours in advance.
