Top Tips For Making Cranberry Brie Dip
- We definitely prefer fresh cranberry sauce instead of the canned type for this recipe. If you’re making your own, try my rosemary cranberry sauce or this version with apples.
- Making your own crostini for dipping in your cranberry brie dip is surprisingly easy. Just get a baguette or French or Italian loaf of bread and cut it into slices about a quarter of an inch thick. Brush both sides of the slices with olive oil and bake for about 10 minutes at 375º, flipping over halfway through the cook time.
