• Serves: You, and whoever you want to share with...
• Prep Time: 10 minutes... including jar opening.
• Total Time: 30 minutes plus or minus

Ingredients

• 1 small round Loaf of Sourdough Bread
• 1 small container of pesto (1 cup or less)
• 1 small wheel of Brie (mine was 8 oz)
• 1/3 cup Pine Nuts
• Baguette slices
• Crackers or bread

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

Pull an oven safe dish out of the cabinet.

Cut the top off of a small round loaf of bread.
Cut around the inside of the bread about 1/2 inch from crust.... You want the hole to be the same size as your brie wheel....Just eyeball it, don't fuss about exact measurements... you can always trim it up (or shove the cheese in to fit)

Pull the excess bread out (use for breadcrumbs, or as a mid-prep snack).

Coat the inside of the bread with pesto... get it in there good.

Cut the top skin off of the brie wheel

Shove the brie into the bread

Cover the top with pesto

Sprinkle Pine Nuts over the top of the pesto

Put in an oven safe casserole... bake 20 minutes or so... cheese should be super soft

Scoop up Baked Brie with an appetizer knife onto cut up bread, crackers or slices of baguette.

Then eat the bread bowl.....mmmmmmm
