This indulgent appetizer is almost too easy! Use the best quality round of Camembert you can find and throw this together in no time when guests pop in. Having a packet of gluten-free crackers in the pantry helps too! You can use any small, deep dish to bake the Camembert, or just put a Camembert baker on your Christmas wish list! The macros were calculated for four people.

Chef Tips:

• Rounds of Camembert sometimes split in the oven, spilling out their glorious oozy cheese, but often they don’t. You can give it a little help by slicing into the side just before serving.
• I used a no-added-sugar strawberry jam to balance out the salty Camembert, but you can use any low-sugar jam you have on hand. To keep with the holiday theme, why not make your own spiced cranberry jam?
• These are best enjoyed immediately, just be sure to warn your guests so that both the cheese and the dish it is served in will be piping hot!

Ingredients

• 8.8 oz round of best-quality Camembert
• 0.4 oz flaked almonds
• 1 oz no-sugar-added jam
• Gluten-free crackers, to serve

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (200°C).
2. Place the round of Camembert into a suitable baking dish and make a small incision on the top. Bake on the middle rack in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, toast the flaked almonds in a hot, dry pan until golden. Set aside to cool, then roughly chop.
4. Top the baked round with jam and toasted almonds and serve immediately with plenty of gluten-free crackers. If the Camembert has not spilled out any oozy cheese, make an incision or two in the side to help it along. I advise doing this after bringing it to the table because it soon turns into a hot mess!
