Ingredients

Scale

Beets

  • 3 medium beets, peeled and sliced into ¼-inch rounds
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Toppings

  • 6 oz Brie cheese, cut into small pieces
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ¼ cup pecans, chopped and toasted
  • 12 tsp honey for drizzling
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Roast the Beets: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the beet rounds with olive oil, salt, and black pepper to evenly coat. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25 to 30 minutes until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. Toast the Pecans: While the beets roast, toast the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes until fragrant and slightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Assemble the Rounds: Once beets have cooled slightly, place them on a serving platter. Top each slice with a small piece of Brie cheese, a few dried cranberries, and a sprinkle of toasted pecans.
  4. Melt Brie (Optional): For a warm, gooey topping, place the assembled beet rounds back into the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to gently melt the Brie cheese.
  5. Finish & Serve: Drizzle the assembled bite-sized rounds lightly with honey and garnish with fresh thyme or rosemary if using. Serve warm or at room temperature for maximum flavor.

Notes

  • You can prepare the beet slices ahead of time and reheat briefly with toppings before serving.
  • To toast pecans evenly, stir frequently and watch carefully to prevent burning.
  • Choose creamy Brie for best melting results; a mild goat cheese can be a tasty alternative.
  • Adjust honey amount to suit your preferred sweetness level.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free and vegetarian friendly.
