Ingredients:

For the Stuffed Bread:

• 1 large sourdough loaf

• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

---

Instructions:

Preheat Oven:

• Set oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the Bread:

• Place the sourdough loaf on a cutting board.
• Using a sharp knife, cut deep diagonal slices into the bread, but don’t cut all the way through (create a grid pattern).

Stuff with Brie & Cranberry Sauce:

• Gently stuff slices of brie into the cuts of the bread.
• Spoon cranberry sauce into the gaps for a sweet-tart contrast.

Make the Garlic Herb Butter:

• In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and thyme.
• Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the bread, making sure it seeps into the cuts.

Bake:

• Wrap the bread loosely in foil and bake for 15 minutes.
• Uncover and bake for another 5-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

 Serve & Enjoy:

• Garnish with extra thyme and serve warm.
• Pull apart pieces and enjoy the gooey brie and sweet cranberry goodness!
