This baked Camembert with thyme and garlic is a quintessential vegetarian starter that is as visually impressive as it is simple to prepare. By infusing the creamy cheese with aromatic garlic and earthy thyme, you create a sophisticated depth of flavour that is beautifully balanced by a subtle hint of maple syrup. It is the perfect centrepiece for a shared festive meal or a cosy night in during the colder autumn and winter months.
To complement the molten texture of the cheese, this recipe includes homemade sea salt croûtes made from sliced baguette. Pressing the bread between layers of oiled parchment ensures a perfectly even, crisp finish without the need for deep-frying. Serve this comforting dish immediately while the cheese is at its peak of gooeyness, allowing guests to tear and dip for a truly sociable dining experience.

Ingredients for Baked Camembert with Thyme & Garlic
1 x 250g camembert in its wooden box
1 garlic clove, peeled and sliced into matchsticks
1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 small baguette, cut into 1/2 in slices
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for brushing
crushed sea salt
How to make Baked Camembert with Thyme & Garlic
Back to contentsPreheat the oven to 204°C. Remove the camembert from the box and discard any wax paper packaging. Take a 10-inch square of foil and place in the box. Place the camembert inside.
Pierce the top of the camembert with the tip of a knife and push in the slices of garlic. Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the top and drizzle with the maple syrup. Loosely scrunch the foil up over the cheese. Set aside.
Brush two 12-inch square sheets (the size of your baking sheet) of parchment paper with oil. Line a baking sheet with one of the oiled parchment sheets, oil-side up. Spread the slices of baguette over the sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with crushed sea salt. Place the remaining sheet of parchment, oil-side down, over the bread.
Place in the oven with the camembert and cook both for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese has risen and the bread is crisp. Open up the foil and dip in the hot baguette for a simple snack. Delicious!
