Melted Brie Brioche Waffle Bites

MELTED BRIE BRIOCHE WAFFLES WITH APRICOT PRESERVES, PECANS AND POMEGRANATE DRIZZLE

There’s something about warm melted cheese with sweets that is so good to me. Maybe because I’m obsessed with the perfect sweet and savory combos. This recipe is so easy and half of it is practically done for you.

You can absolutely make your own brioche or any sweet bread for this. However, I saw these St. Pierre individually wrapped and bagged brioche belgian waffles at Heinen’s, and HAD to pair it with melted brie.

And that’s not all. I also mixed in a few dollops of apricot preserves, pecans and some of that pomegranate drizzle from my last post for goat cheesecake blondies.

You can warm or toast your brioche bread in the oven first to really encompass all the flavors!

Any sweet bread will do honestly. I just love the sweetness of Belgian waffles.
