📖 Steps

Preheat the oven broiler or toaster. If using the oven, set it to 220 °C on the broil setting.
Toast the bread slices until golden brown on both sides. The inside should stay slightly soft and the outside crisp.
Immediately lay the brie slices on the hot bread — the heat starts to soften the cheese slightly.
Place under the broiler for 1–2 min to melt the brie (watch it: it happens very fast). The cheese should be oozing but not completely liquid.
Take out of the oven and drizzle with honey right away. Scatter the roughly crushed walnuts over the top.
Sprinkle with fresh thyme and a generous grind of pepper. Add a few arugula leaves if using.
Finish with a pinch of fleur de sel to balance the sweetness. Serve within 2 minutes — the crunch doesn't last long!

💡 FitBot tip: For a more refined version, toast the walnuts in a dry pan for 2 min beforehand — their aroma goes through the roof. The arugula adds a welcome bitterness against the richness of the cheese and the sweetness of the honey.
