We are so excited to share this recipe from Dan Pelosi for his Baked Brie Bread Bowl, excerpted from his first cookbook, Let’s Eat.

Also from Let’s Eat:

Dan writes in Let’s Eat¹:

My sister Diana’s official title is Queen of Baked Brie. For years—even decades—she has been smothering Brie with jam and wrapping it in phyllo for every family gathering. The dish is Peak Pinterest Mom, and if I had to describe Queen Diana, the phrase I’d use would be, well, “Peak Pinterest Mom.” Influenced by her, I have been known to dabble in baked Brie (and my own Pinterest Mom aesthetic) as well, and this version might just be my most exciting creation. Crusty bread, ready to pull and dip (it’s like the bend and snap, but for snacks) into a well of warm, gooey Brie and sweet mostarda di frutta—though you can use any jam you like—sprinkled with fresh thyme leaves and a bit of grated cheese. Your guests won’t be able to “pin” this recipe fast enough!
