The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).

    About 5 min

  2. 2

    Unwrap the camembert cheese and place it in a small oven-safe dish or its original wooden box (if suitable for oven use, remove any paper or plastic).

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: If using the wooden box, ensure it's stapled, not glued, and remove any paper lining.

  3. 3

    Bake the camembert for 12-15 minutes, or until it is soft and gooey in the center.

    About 15 min

    Cook’s note: The cheese should be visibly puffed up and soft when gently pressed.

  4. 4

    Carefully remove the dish from the oven.

  5. 5

    Drizzle the honey generously over the warm camembert.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves over the top.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately with slices of crusty bread for dipping.

    Cook’s note: You can also serve with crackers or apple slices.
