Garlic Brie Pizza

Yield: 10 servings

Ingredients

3 whole garlic bulbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
12 ounces Brie cheese
1 prebaked 12-inch pizza crust
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Directions

1. Remove papery outer skin from garlic (do not peel or separate cloves). Cut the top off each garlic bulb. Brush with oil. Wrap each bulb in heavy-duty foil; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 30-35 minutes or until softened. Cool for 10-15 minutes. Squeeze softened garlic into a small bowl and mash.

2. Remove rind from Brie and discard. Cut Brie into 1/4-in. slices. Place crust on a 12-in. pizza pan. Spread with garlic. Arrange cheese slices over garlic; sprinkle with almonds. Bake at 450° for 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
