What Is Camembert?

Camembert is a velvety-soft, surface-ripened cow’s milk cheese hailing from the Normandy region of France. Similar to brie in appearance and flavor, it has a lower butterfat content by weight, an earthier flavor, and a more pungent aroma than its counterpart.

Expert Tips

1. Use a good quality Camembert cheese for the best results. A ripe, high-quality cheese will provide the perfect texture and flavor.
2. Score the top of the Camembert cheese before cooking to help it melt evenly.
3. Add a sprinkle of herbs, red chili flakes and a drizzle of honey before cooking to add extra flavor.
4. Serve with crusty bread, crackers, or fresh fruit for a delicious and balanced appetizer.

Follow these tips, and you'll be sure to impress your guests with a perfectly cooked, deliciously gooey air fryer baked Camembert.

You'll Need

• Camembert: You’ll need a whole wheel for this recipe. It’s best to purchase a wheel of camembert that comes in a wooden box so you can place it directly in the air fryer.
• Olive Oil: Use high quality olive oil that you wouldn’t mind drizzling on your camembert.
• Honey: Use a more liquid variety that distributes evenly. You can also use maple syrup if preferred.
• Garlic: Mash an unpeeled garlic clove with the blunt end of a knife.
• Rosemary: The woody, aromatic flavor of rosemary complements the rich and creamy taste of Camembert, making it a great choice to add extra flavor to this dish.
• Red Chili Flakes: They can add a subtle spicy kick that pairs well with this cheese. Adjust the amount according to your taste preferences.

How To Make Air Fryer Baked Camembert

1. Preheat your air fryer to 350F.
2. Unwrap the Camembert from its packaging and place it back into its wooden box.
3. Score the top of the cheese in a crosshatch pattern, and drizzle it with honey and olive oil.

1. Top the cheese with garlic and rosemary sprigs, and sprinkle with a small amount of red chili flakes for a subtle kick.
2. Place the Camembert in the air fryer basket and cook for 7-9 minutes or until it's melted and gooey.

Storage

❗ Air fryer baked camembert is best enjoyed right out of the oven while it’s still melty and warm.

To store leftover baked Camembert, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the refrigerator. It's best to consume the leftovers within 2-3 days, as the cheese may dry out and lose its flavor over time. When you're ready to reheat the Camembert, place it back in the air fryer or in the oven at a low temperature until it's heated through and gooey again. Be careful not to overheat the cheese, as it can become tough and rubbery if cooked for too long.
