Baked brie with red pepper jelly is sooo good! This is a delicious combination that takes your appetizers to the next level. I use Stonewell Kitchen red pepper jelly.
Serve with speciality crackers or thin toasted French bread slices.
fall, football, thanksgiving and christmas too
Starting with fall, there are many opportunities to gather with family and friends Watch football, gather for Thanksgiving meal and around the Christmas Tree.
It is the perfect time for those delicious appetizers you serve for special gatherings. That just might turn into dinner too.
Appetizers!

Who doesn’t love appetizers? Baked Brie with red pepper jelly is a delicious choice; so is a simple tray with cheese slices and rolled up cold cuts. Isn’t that a pretty presentation?
I serve more ‘small meals’ and appetizers during fall through the New Year more than just about any other time of the year.
Do you like to serve delicous yet simple small dishes? Baked brie with red pepper jelly is one of our favorites. So is spinach artichole dip.
Check out my recipe here; it’s delicious. and easy to make. Both of these appetizers are hot. I usually add at least one hot appetizer to the menu.Â
Often for us, this array of appetizers are served in lieu of lunch or for the interlude before a later special holiday meal during the Thanksgiving weekend or Christmas season.
Many times I have set out food prior to a concert like grandchildren’s concerts and dance performances. I often do before the Christms Eve service so we can enjoy some food ahead .
These special events start times would make being on time and eating before a frenzied effort to feed the family and get out the door on time. To avoid that when my children were small, I laid out a selction of hot and cold appetizers for us and guests.
Traditions!
It’s a tradition we continue today. Just keep it simple!
Baked Brie is one of our all time favorites. But like most appetizers we only have it a few times a year.
Baked Brie is maybe a little snazzier because well, it has a French name and you buy it from the fancy cheese section in the grocery store.
Use a cute baking dish. Mine is a Polish Pottery heart-shaped dish.
I also linked a favorite jelly brand, Stonewall Kitchen for red pepper jelly!

Looks amazing! Something new to try!

Hi Linda,
Brie anything and I’m happy. But pepper jelly is even better.

Totally agree Cindy!
What temperature is oven preheated to?
Good morning, So glad you caught that omission! I’m fixing it nest thing. I checked with my DIL. She says the real key to an excellent result is the bring the brie to room temperature before baking!! Preheat to 350. It takes about 12 minutes but check because oven temps and thickness of the pastry dough are variable. Happy Holidays!
My favorite tradition is setting up appetizers at home. I don’t think anyone hesitates, we all gather around the kitchen island! This looks beyond delicious, I need to try it!
Always a favorite – anytime of the year. Brie is one of those things which is easy to dress up with toppings and pastry.
Got that right. Thanks for dropping by Rosemary

Oh this looks really yummy! Thank you for sharing.
Yum! Baked brie always feels like holidays to me! We usually use a fig jam, but red pepper sounds like a good option!
Baked Brie is one of my favorites! I love to serve it when I entertain.

Thanks KariAnne for dropping by.
I have some brie and was wondering what to do with it. This is the perfect solution!
Hope it was tasty.
I am a huge fan of brie and the addition of pepper is lovely. My hubby always makes the Velveeta and this would be a nice addition to the offerings.

Thanks for dropping by Traci. Hope your Super Bowl is a fun delicious time!
It’s sweet with a tang! In years past we used Nancy’s but don’t think she made any this past season.
I love baked brie but usually with a sweet topping. I don’t think I’ve ever had pepper jelly so maybe it’s something to try.
Thanks for the share Rosemary. still a favorite to serve!
