Chef Jenn’s Tips
Use a high-quality Brie for the creamiest, most flavorful result.
Toast the pecans for 5–7 minutes in a dry skillet beforehand to bring out their nuttiness.
Maple syrup adds a deeper, cozier sweetness—great for fall and winter gatherings.
Want a savory twist? Add a pinch of flaky sea salt or a light drizzle of balsamic glaze.
If you’re serving a crowd, bake two wheels side by side. It disappears fast!
