Apple Baked Brie

I am so excited to share today’s caramelized apple baked brie recipe as it is genuinely really delicious! So this past Friday, I was able to go to my local Busch’s Fresh Food Market in Brighton’s grand opening! I actually have been going there regularly for a while but all of the renovations and such finally finished up and now we have a phenomenal market (it even has a Starbucks and sushi bar!).  Busch’s has been one of my favorite places to get my groceries for years as I love their selection of local products and I am so excited to finally have one just around the corner from me!

Before going, I decided to whip up a baked brie with apples from the ingredients I was going to get at Busch’s.  It would be an impressive appetizer that would be simple to make filled with Michigan products! We are known for our apples here so of course I want to incorporate those into the recipe!

They had a fantastic selection of locally grown, fresh products to choose from such as Michigan cherries along with some more exotic products like passionfruit.

With it being the opening of this location, they had loads of fun things going on like this cheese carving.  Eventually, it will be a truck and it was made with the best mild cheddar cheese I have ever had.  It was rated the best mild cheddar at competitions which is pretty neat!

Now this was my favorite sample that was out by far, the piña colada white cheddar cheese.  I know, it kinda sounds crazy but WOW! This would be SO good in a grilled cheese with some ham!

I focused on trying to get as many local products as possible from the pure maple syrup to pecans to my surprise find of Knickerbocker Cranberry Walnut Bread! That bread was perfect with a cup of the Traverse City Cherry Coffee I found!
