Easy Fall Entertaining Cheese Recipes
Caramelized Pear and Walnut Topped Brie with Honey
Quick and easy, this baked brie is the perfect appetizer for any holiday gathering. Rich and creamy brie is topped with sweet caramelized pears and crunchy walnuts before being baked until melty! A drizzle of local honey adds an irresistible touch of sweetness making this an appetizer that is sure to disappear quickly!
Le Gré des Champs Flatbread with Apples, Crispy Pancetta and Balsamic
This flatbread is pure perfection! While it might be quick to pull together, it’s super impressive and flavourful. A generous sprinkle of Le Gré des Champs covers the flatbread which is then topped with tangy Granny Smith apple slices and crispy fried pancetta.
Balsamic Mixed Mushroom Topped Camembert
This easy-to-transport appetizer will be the talk of the town at your next party! Umami-rich mushrooms are sautéed in fresh herbs and a splash of balsamic vinegar, piled on top of a creamy round Upper Canada Cheese Company Camembert and baked until melty. Serve with a toasted baguette or crackers.
Honourable Mention
How would this even be a Fall appetizer round-up if I didn’t include pretzels? These mini pretzels with cheddar cheese dip are perfect for a Fall gathering – from football to Oktoberfest. However, they’ve earned a spot as an honourable mention because they take slightly longer than 30 minutes to prepare… but believe me, they are worth the effort!
Mini Pretzels with Avonlea Cheddar Cheese Dip
The buttery pretzels and slightly spicy cheese dip were perfectly matched by the refreshing and flavourful Hefeweizen beer. Enjoy on a cool Fall night or when celebrating Oktoberfest.
