Baked Brie Recipe
This Baked Brie Recipe brings together ooey-gooey cheese, flaky puff pastry, and a hint of sweet jam for a quick, easy, and delicious holiday appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry (8x8 inches), thawed
- 1 wheel Brie cheese (8 ounces), at room temperature choose triple-cream for extra silkiness
- 2 tablespoons fig jam or apricot preserves for a seasonal touch
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts toasted, for crunch
- 1 large egg, beaten egg wash for that glossy finish
- Pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Sprigs of fresh rosemary or thyme for garnish
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
- on a lightly floured surface; gently roll it into a roughly 9x9-inch square. Spread the fig jam in the center, place Brie on top, sprinkle pecans, fold pastry edges over, brush with beaten egg.
- Transfer to prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed. Let it rest, garnish with herbs, slice and serve.
Notes
Substitutions: use gluten-free pastry sheet; swap nuts for seeds if avoiding tree nuts; drizzle honey instead of jam for a lighter twist.
