    I assume that because you're reading this easy baked camembert post, you are nuts about cheese just like me. I'm all over cheese you know, well except blue cheese.

    I still can't quite get over its unique smell and really adore anybody can eat it. I can name at least 10 types of cheese, and at work I once ran a promo entirely about cheese.

    It ran so well and was flooded with demand that we decided to add it to our main menu. As a cheese lover I must say baked Camembert cheese really stole my heart.

    Since the moment I got to eat it, I swear I always attempt to bake any cheese to test whether they are as good as Camembert. So without further ado I present you this incredibly easy baked Camembert recipe.

    How to cook with Camembert

    I want to share with you such an interesting tip about this baked Camembert. Normally, you must cut the top of the cheese before you put it in the over.

    By doing so, you accelerate the baking process and help the cheese melted faster. Which results in a cheese-fondue-like for the Camembert.

    However, it requires a very thin, sharp knife and incredible knife skills to make sure not much of cheese was removed with the cut top.

    Instead of that, I prefer cutting the whole Camembert in half, not vertically but horizontally (along with its diameter).

    Then you'll end up with two Camembert which means double the goodness and nothing needs to be thrown away.

    Equipment used to bake this camembert

    I use this extra small cast iron skillet to bake my cheese directly in it and serve afterward. It is so cute and wonderfully convenient.

    You can buy one of those cute skillets with very affordable price on Amazon. Man, how I miss Amazon! Where I live right now there is nothing can compare to Amazon, let alone the amazing Prime shipping benefit.

    The secret of this easy baked camembert recipes and its related recipes

    What made this recipe special than others? Because of the uncanny pairing style. You'll find no other wonderful flavor than the one created in this recipe: a little bit of honey, basils and crunchy nuts mixed with the Goddess melted Camembert.

    Nuts in general are the good pairing when it comes to cheese plater. At my restaurant where I worked at, we make ourselves a good version of candied walnuts to serve with.

    They are sweet, crunchy, and super tasty. Customers kept asking for more.

    By the way, you will see the amazing cast iron skillet in the candied walnuts recipe which was mentioned above. It's durable and super beautiful

    And if you have extra time on your hand, this Mexican fruity sauce called Chamoy is a must try with this cheese platter. It will be the BEST thing you've ever tasted, I promise.

    Benefit of cheese

    Before hopping to this incredibly easy baked Camembert, I just want to point out some benefits about eating cheese. (Yeah, like we need more reasons to falling in love with cheese, right?).

    According to Evening Standard, cheese is full of good bacteria which help to maintain good digestive health, weight, and immune system. So what are you waiting for? Go grab that cheese and come back for the recipe, won't you?

      Oh my gosh! It's like you've read my mind. Baked Camembert is my absolute favourite! We usually buy a pre done pack where you stick the camembert into the oven, but this way looks much much better. I'm definitely trying this recipe out. Thank you for sharing all the tastiness over on the #DreamTeamLinky 🙂
