Baked Brie Cranberry in Bread Bowl Ingredients: 1 bread boule (round loaf) Cooking spray 1 (8-ounce) brie wheel 1/2 cup cranberry sauce 2 tablespoons fresh thyme Directions: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice off the top quarter of the bread boule. Carefully slice the rind off the brie wheel. Place the brie on top of the bread and use a knife to trace around it, creating a circle. Scoop out the bread inside the traced area, reserving it for another use or toasting as dippers. Place the bread boule on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle the brie wheel into the hollowed bread center. Lightly spray the outer crust of the bread with cooking spray.
