Baked Brie with Raspberries, Pecans and Sweet Jalapeños

IMG_0212 (1).jpg

I like to be adventurous with my food when I'm in the kitchen. I really like to pretend I'm some great chef with a splash here and a dash there. It's one of the reasons we like to offer our candied jalapenos in slices. Slices on homemade pizza, minced on top of deviled eggs and chopped for our #1 Favorite Treat and then there is the brine, sigh...

I have been asked if we make a jalapeño jelly and this is my reply. I prefer to concoct my own "jalapeno jelly". It's that inner child, "play with my food" that comes out. The combinations of versatility is what wins me over, Blackberry, Pineapple, and Blueberries.

Ingredients

1 wheel of  Brie

3/4 cup of raspberry Jam

1/2 cup of fresh/frozen raspberries

1/4 cup of diced candied jalapeños

1/2 cup of pecans, toasted and chopped

Directions

Cut the top rind off of the Brie.  Place the Brie in a shallow baking dish. Spoon over the top of the Brie the rest of the ingredients: raspberry jam, raspberries, toasted pecans and candied jalapeños. Place in oven at 350 for 5-7 minutes or until Brie starts to ooze but not melts. Serve with crackers.
