Save Recipe

Authentic brie cheese is a soft, creamy cheese that originated in northern France. It’s a milk cheese and usually has a white, creamy rind. The rind of the cheese is also edible and typically eaten.

Brie is commonly used for appetizers and salads. Brie is one of my favorite cheeses, especially baked brie in recipes like this strawberry jam baked brie or maple bacon baked brie, wrapped in a puff pastry and baked to perfection! 

There are so many ways to serve brie and plenty of ideas to serve it with, so let’s get into it. Whether you are creating an easy appetizer for a dinner party or using brie as an ingredient in your main dish for special occasions, there are lots of delicious ways to add this type of cheese with its amazing delicate flavor to your meals!

Appetizer Sides to Serve With Brie

1. French Bread

A classic accompaniment to brie, a crispy and chewy French bread goes well with the soft and creamy texture of the cheese. 

2. Crackers

The creamy consistency of brie makes it perfect for spreading on crackers. Plain crackers, melba toast, and seed crackers are great options. 

3. Chutney

Most types of chutney go well with this soft French cheese, adding a nice sweetness and slight tang to the cheese. 

4. Fresh Fruit and Nuts

Fresh, dried, and candied fruits are all great accompaniments to brie. Nuts also enhance the flavor of brie, and adding a pinch of sea salt can take them to the next level. 

5. Honey

A drizzle of honey or even maple syrup over your brie adds a delightful touch of sweetness to the flavor. 

6. Jam

Spread some jam over your brie for a delicious combination of sweetness and tanginess. Fig jam and apricot jam are two of my favorite pairings with brie cheese.  

7. Olives

Olives like Kalamata olives go brilliantly with brie, bringing out its creamy, nutty flavor. 

8. Charcuterie

Adding some cured meats such as salami and prosciutto adds saltiness and gives the cheese board more variety. Throw together a beautiful charcuterie board with brie as the centerpiece for the perfect appetizer or even a meal. 

9. Cornichons

These small pickles cut through the flavor of brie and add a nice sharpness to the plate. 

10. Pickled Onions

Pickled onions brighten the flavor of brie cheese.

11. Basil Pesto

Spread some basil pesto over your brie for an Italian-inspired flavor. Serve these with crackers for the perfect partner to your basil pesto brie.
