Description
A sweet and savory twist on nachos featuring crispy tortilla chips topped with melted Brie, sliced pears, crunchy walnuts, and a drizzle of spicy hot honey. Perfect for a fall gathering or game day snack.
Ingredients
- 8 oz (about 225g) tortilla chips
- 8 oz (225g) Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into small pieces
- 2 ripe pears (such as Bosc or Anjou), cored and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more to taste)
- Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread tortilla chips in a single layer on a large baking sheet or oven-safe platter.
- Scatter the Brie pieces evenly over the chips. Top with sliced pears and chopped walnuts.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the Brie is melted and gooey.
- While the nachos bake, make the hot honey: In a small saucepan, combine honey and red pepper flakes. Warm over low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Drizzle the hot honey over the baked nachos. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
You can customize the seasonings to taste. For a milder kick, reduce the red pepper flakes; for extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne. Use a double cream Brie for extra richness. Assemble and bake just before serving to keep chips crisp.
