Brie Stuffed Garlic Bread

What do you do with half of a day old baguette? In my house we usually throw it away, or save it for the ducks at the park. Well, not anymore; a couple of days ago I was starring at this stale piece of baguette while making dinner and decided instead of being wasteful I would try to make something yummy out of it, I looked in the fridge and found a wedge of double cream Brie and that is when this recipe was born! 

Brie Stuffed Garlic Bread
  • 1 day old baguette (or fresh if you prefer) 
  • 1 small wedge Double Cream Brie, sliced
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon parsley flakes 
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 2 minced garlic cloves
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter in a bowl, add parsley flakes and garlic powder (or minced garlic), mix and set aside. Slice baguette on one side and fill with sliced brie pieces. Place baguette on a roasting pan lined with foil. Brush the baguette with butter mixture and fold the foil over the baguette creating a pouch. Bake for 20 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and the Brie has melted. Slice and Enjoy!
