Grilled Peach Blueberry Baked Brie

This Grilled Peach Blueberry Baked Brie is the ultimate summer appetizer made with creamy brie cheese, fresh peaches, juicy blueberries, honey, basil, and pecans, all cooked together in a skillet on the grill until warm, bubbly, and perfectly melty. Whether you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, patio happy hour, girls’ night, or summer dinner party, this easy grilled baked brie recipe is guaranteed to be the first thing everyone gathers around.

Instead of turning on the oven, everything cooks right on the grill in a cast iron skillet. As the brie softens, the peaches become tender and sweet, the blueberries begin to burst and create a naturally jammy sauce, and the honey caramelizes slightly around the edges. The entire skillet transforms into a warm, sweet-and-savory appetizer that’s almost impossible to stop eating.

Once it comes off the grill, I finish it with fresh basil and chopped pecans. The basil adds a bright pop of freshness while the pecans bring just the right amount of crunch to balance the creamy brie and juicy fruit. Add a few crackers or slices of toasted baguette on the side, and you have the kind of appetizer that looks impressive but takes very little effort to make.

This is the recipe I would serve for everything from casual summer cookouts to wine nights on the patio. It’s beautiful enough for entertaining, easy enough for weeknights, and packed with the fresh flavors of summer.

The best part? It comes together in one skillet with minimal prep and less than 20 minutes of cooking time.

Make Ahead and Storage Tips

One of the best things about this Grilled Peach Blueberry Baked Brie is that most of the prep work can be done ahead of time, making it an easy appetizer for entertaining.

Make Ahead

If you’re planning a party, BBQ, holiday gathering, or summer dinner with friends, you can assemble this grilled baked brie up to 24 hours in advance.

Simply add the peaches and blueberries to your cast iron skillet or grill-safe baking dish, place the wheel of brie in the center, score the top of the cheese, and drizzle everything with honey. Cover tightly and refrigerate until you’re ready to grill.

When it’s time to serve, place the skillet directly on the grill and cook as directed. Wait to add the fresh basil, pecans, and final drizzle of honey until just before serving for the best flavor and texture.

How to Store Leftovers

Store any leftover baked brie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Keep in mind that baked brie is always best enjoyed fresh while warm and melty, but leftovers are still delicious. The fruit mixture will continue to soften and become even more jam-like as it sits.

How to Reheat Baked Brie

To reheat, place the leftover baked brie in an oven-safe dish and warm in a 300°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese becomes soft again.

You can also reheat individual portions in the microwave in 15-second intervals, although the texture is best when reheated in the oven.

Can You Freeze Baked Brie?

Freezing is not recommended for this recipe. While it is technically safe to freeze, the texture of both the brie and fruit can change after thawing. For the best flavor and texture, enjoy this grilled peach blueberry baked brie fresh or within a couple of days of making it.
