Step-by-step preparation

Step 1: Prepare the spicy honey

1. In a small saucepan, mix the honey with the chili flakes and the thyme.
2. Heat for only 2 minutes over very low heat.
3. Remove from heat and let it rest so the honey infuses.

Step 2: Caramelize the peaches

1. Melt the butter in a pan.
2. Add the peaches.
3. Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
4. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes per side, just until they begin to caramelize without losing their shape.
5. Reserva.

Step 3: Bake the Brie

1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
2. Place the Brie in a small baking dish or a cast iron skillet.
3. With a knife, make some superficial diamond-shaped cuts on the rind, without cutting all the way through.
4. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the inside is completely soft.

Step 4: Presentation

1. Transfer the hot Brie to a platter.
2. Arrange the caramelized peaches on top and around.
3. Drizzle with the spicy honey.
4. Sprinkle the pistachios and walnuts.
5. Decorate with fresh thyme leaves.
6. Surround the cheese with toasted baguette, crostinis, apple slices, and grapes.
