Method
 

Preparation

Cooking
  1. In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Pan-fry the Brie bites until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes for each side.
Making the Drizzle
  1. Combine raspberry preserves, honey, and lemon juice in a small saucepan, heating on low until combined and smooth.
Serving
  1. Serve the warm Brie bites generously drizzled with the raspberry honey glaze.

Notes

Best enjoyed warm. Can be arranged on a wooden board with fresh raspberries and sliced baguette. Reheating leftovers in an oven is recommended for best results.
