This Garlic Herb Sourdough Bread Stuffed with Brie and Cranberry Sauce is a delightful appetizer perfect for holiday gatherings. A crusty sourdough boule is sliced in a grid pattern and generously filled with creamy Brie cheese, tangy cranberry sauce, and a fragrant garlic-herb butter. Baked until golden and melty, this pull-apart bread offers a perfect combination of savory, sweet, and aromatic flavors that will impress your guests.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 round sourdough boule (about 1 lb)
  • 8 oz Brie cheese, sliced
  • 1/2 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Bread: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the sourdough boule into a grid pattern by slicing horizontally and vertically about 1-inch apart, making sure not to cut all the way through the bottom so the loaf stays intact. Gently separate the cuts with your fingers to create crevices.
  2. Make Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to infuse the butter with the aromatic herbs and garlic.
  3. Stuff the Bread: Spoon or brush the garlic herb butter mixture evenly into the cuts, ensuring it seeps into all the crevices of the bread. Then, tuck slices of Brie cheese and small spoonfuls of whole berry cranberry sauce into the cuts evenly throughout the loaf.
  4. Bake the Bread: Place the stuffed sourdough boule on a baking sheet lined with foil. Wrap the loaf loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes to allow the cheeses to start melting.
  5. Finish Baking: Remove the foil cover and continue baking for another 10 to 15 minutes until the Brie is fully melted and the bread top is golden brown and crisp.
  6. Serve Warm: Remove from oven and serve the pull-apart bread warm, allowing guests to pull pieces off easily, savoring the melty, flavorful cheese and tangy cranberry contrast.

Notes

  • This pull-apart bread is best served fresh but can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving.
  • You can substitute Brie with Camembert or goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • Use store-bought or homemade cranberry sauce based on preference.
  • For extra texture, add chopped pecans or walnuts into the cuts along with the cheese and sauce.
