Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 2

Place the fig jam in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the sliced dried figs with the nuts. Add half of the fig jam and mix well to coat the nut mixture.

Step 4

Place the round of brie in a small cast iron skillet or oven-safe dish. Using a small knife, coat the brie with the remainder of the jam or honey.

Step 5

Top the brie with the fig and nut mixture.

Step 6

Place the dish or skillet on top of a baking sheet (this will make it easier to handle and will also catch any melted cheese). Bake on the middle rack of your heated oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until the brie softens.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the brie sit for 3 to 5 minutes or so. Serve warm with your favorite crackers!
