Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the brie:
Place the brie on a baking sheet or in a small oven-safe dish.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the brie is soft and gooey in the center. You can slice the top of the brie off if you want to make it easier to dip!
Cook the berries:
While the brie is baking, place the strawberries, blueberries, honey, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries soften and release their juices. You can slightly mash them with the back of a spoon if you want a smoother sauce.
Stir in the lemon zest (if using) and remove from heat.
Assemble the dish:
Once the brie is baked, remove it from the oven.
Pour the honey-lemon berry mixture over the top of the warm brie.
Garnish and serve:
Optionally, garnish with fresh mint or thyme leaves for an extra pop of flavor.
Serve immediately with crusty bread, crackers, or sliced fruit for dipping.
This baked brie with honey-lemon berries will be a hit as an appetizer or a special treat at any gathering. Enjoy the perfect blend of creamy, sweet, and tangy flavors!
