Tips:

Use ripe apricots: The sweetness of ripe apricots will help balance out the tartness of the brie.
Toast the almonds: Toasting the almonds will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
Use a good quality brie: A good brie will have a creamy, buttery flavor that will pair well with the apricots and almonds.
Don't overcook the brie: Brie is a delicate cheese that can easily become overcooked. Just a few minutes in the oven is all it needs to melt and become gooey.
Serve immediately: Brie is best served warm and gooey. Once it has cooled, it will start to firm up and lose its creamy texture.
