Pumpkin Shaped Baked Brie - The Perfect Thanksgiving Appetizer

I’ve been wanting to make a Pumpkin Shaped Baked Brie since last year this time and finally got around to it! You won’t believe how easy it is to put together and it’s such a cute appetizer to serve now and it would be the best Thanksgiving appetizer! Fall is such a great time to cook and make comfort food and now that I’ve made this recipe and know how easy it is, I’ll be making it over and over again! It’s so delicious with fig preserves but you could also use apple butter, apricot, or really anything you like! Serve it with toasted French bread slices, dried fruit, nuts and/or your favorite cracker! It’s sure to be a hit!

I served this brie on a fabulous platter from Haand Pottery! It’s the perfect size for the brie and all of the accroutrements! Use my code CRAZYBLONDELIFE to receive 15% off your order from Haand!
