Method

1. Prepare the brie

• Place the whole brie in a small oven-safe dish.
• Lightly score the top round (just shallow cuts — don’t go deep).

2. Bake

• Bake at 180°C (fan 160°C) for 10–12 minutes
• The inside should be soft and melted, but still holding shape.

3. Prepare the fig glaze

• Warm the Jamco Fig Fruit Spread until smooth and glossy.
• Optional: mix with a touch of honey for a richer finish.

4. Assemble

• Remove brie from oven
• Spoon the fig fruit spread over the top — smooth, even layer
• Sprinkle crushed pistachios over for texture

5. Finish

• Drizzle olive oil lightly
• Add thyme + black pepper for aroma and contrast
