Freezing – Scoop any leftover cheese into an airtight container and freeze for up to three months.

Can I make this gluten free?

Easily! Brie is usually gluten free, but check the label to make sure. Most of the ingredients are already gluten free so the trick is making sure the dippers are gluten free as well. Use gluten free pretzels and breads and always make sure everything you serve with this appetizer is gluten free. Don’t mix and match dippers for your guests because cross contamination is a risk with an appetizer like this since everyone is dipping and sharing.

Can I make this dairy free?

Sure! Substitute the brie wheel for vegan brie and butter for a diary-free version. The baking time may be a bit different and the textures may turn out a bit different as well, so just be aware.

Can I use different sugars?

Yes. While I like brown sugar for this recipe best, you can certainly substitute it with coconut sugar or sugar in the raw. Note that the flavor will be different, depending on what sugar you plan to use.
